The US Dollar is stabilizing near a multi-month low as markets evaluate the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) data while awaiting the Producer Price Index (PPI). Despite a slowdown in core and headline inflation, rising real wages and steady prices for essential goods could slow the expected easing of monetary policy from the central bank, offering temporary support to the dollar. Concerns regarding President Trump's trade policies and their effect on consumer confidence add to risks for US economic growth. The upcoming Federal Reserve decision is poised to significantly impact the dollar's trajectory.
The US Dollar stabilized near a multi-month low as market participants assessed the latest Consumer Price Index data and awaited today's Producer Price Index.
While core and headline inflation registered a slowdown, a rise in real wages and persistent inflation in essential goods could temper expectations of a looser monetary policy from the central bank.
Concerns over President Trump's protectionist trade policies have dampened consumer confidence, raising risks for US growth and escalating trade tensions.
Next week's Federal Reserve decision will be a key driver for the dollar; a dovish stance will keep pressure while a hawkish approach could boost it.
