Traders stockpile dry powder as Fed decision looms

Currency markets are drifting into Tuesday with a wary, slightly defensive tone, caught between a thin data calendar, declining volumes, and the growing sense that policy divergences are about to reshape the global landscape. Treasury yields are a touch softer after yesterday’s curve-steepening move, equity futures are pointing marginally lower, and the dollar is trading sideways against all of its major counterparts as traders brace for tomorrow’s Federal Reserve decision. This morning’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover release could provide critical insight on job market conditions. Unusually, the report—which will cover the entirety of September and October as opposed to...

Trading ranges narrow in run-up to Fed meeting

The dollar is edging lower against a basket of its most-traded rivals as investors focus attention on this week’s Federal Reserve meeting—and on the implications for monetary policy in 2026. Benchmark ten-year Treasury yields are parked near the 4.15-percent mark, equity futures are holding steady ahead of the North American open, and the euro, pound, and Japanese yen are all firmly rangebound amid a lack of domestic catalysts. Markets overwhelmingly expect a “hawkish cut” on Wednesday, with the statement language, dot plot projections, and Chair Powell’s words all pointing to a more gradual pace of easing in the coming months....

Currencies settle in for a long winter’s nap 

Consolidative price action is taking place across financial markets this morning as risk appetite improves ahead of next week’s all-important Federal Reserve meeting. Benchmark ten-year Treasury yields are holding firm around the 4.11-percent handle, the dollar is trading sideways, and equity futures are setting for a continuation of an almost two week-long Santa Claus rally. Most major currencies are looking technically stretched against the dollar, with many trading beyond moving averages and Bollinger Band levels. The US economy is still delivering contradictory signals. Consumer sentiment, as measured by the Conference Board and the University of Michigan, continues to deteriorate even...

Fed easing bets drive dollar lower

The dollar is cruising toward an eighth consecutive day of losses—its longest losing streak since 2020—as the Japanese yen climbs and traders double down on expectations for an aggressive easing campaign from the Federal Reserve. Japanese ten-year yields are holding near their highest levels since the global financial crisis and rate differentials are tightening in the yen’s favour after Bloomberg reported that Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi’s government wouldn’t oppose a rate hike at the Bank of Japan’s meeting on December 19. Odds on a hike have climbed to 89 percent from less than 17 percent in late November after Governor...
