The Dollar chased the spike in US yields following a big tailing in the 30-year Treasury auction and hawkish comments by Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Economists at ING analyze USD outlook.
Dynamics across the US yield curve will have a big say in whether the Dollar can hold on to its new gains. Anyway, we had called for a recovery in DXY to 106.00 as the Fed would have likely pushed back against the dovish repricing.
The rebound in yields should put a floor under the Dollar, but we suspect some reassurances from the data side will be needed for another big jump in the USD.
