Outlook on DXY

Technical Perspective:
DXY remains within an ascending channel as the price approaches the 104.50 support zone, which coincides with the lower bound of the ascending channel and 78.6% Fibonacci retracement. If DXY rebounds above this level and regains its bullish momentum, a further rise toward the 106.00 resistance and 61.8% Fibonacci extension might occur. Conversely, a bearish breakout of the ascending channel could prompt a further decline towards the next potential support at 103.50.

Fundamental Perspective:
Recent US economic data, marked by sharp downward revisions to April and May jobs data and modest June NFP data, may set the stage for a Fed rate cut in September. NY Fed consumer inflation expectations for the upcoming year eased to 3% in June from 3.2% in May. Meanwhile, five-year inflation expectations declined to 2.8% per year. Markets now await more insights from the CPI data on Thursday, where easing price pressures could limit the dollar's upside.
