DNVN - On October 25, 2024, the USD paused its growth streak, after reaching a high of nearly three months earlier.
USD exchange rate on international market
The Dollar Index (DXY), a measure of the strength of the USD against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF), is currently at 104.02 points, down 0.39 points from the trading session on October 24, 2024.
The recent session has seen the euro and the yen gain, while the dollar has temporarily stalled after hitting a near three-month high. Fiona Cincotta of Forex.com said economic data from the US is reinforcing the view that the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates more slowly than initially expected.
Data on initial U.S. jobless claims fell to 227,000 last week, below the 242,000 estimate of economists polled by Reuters. Still, the number of continuing claims hit a nearly three-year high, reflecting uncertainty in the U.S. labor market and potentially forcing the Fed to take a closer look at its decision to cut interest rates.
Investors are now awaiting the release of the Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI), with the US services PMI expected to fall to 55 in October from 55.2 in the previous month. In contrast, the manufacturing PMI is expected to rise slightly from 47.3 to 47.5, indicating a recovery in the manufacturing sector, said Fiona Cincotta.
The dollar has pulled back slightly after hitting a nearly three-month high in the previous session as investors took profits. However, the currency has maintained its strong momentum in October, thanks to expectations of gradual interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and uncertainty surrounding the US presidential election in November.
Many financial experts believe that the US labor market situation along with global economic fluctuations will play an important role in deciding the Fed's upcoming interest rate policy. At the same time, investors are still following economic data to have appropriate strategies in the coming time.
