DXY Daily TA Cautiously BearishDXYUSD daily guidance is cautiously bearish. Recommended ratio: 30% DXY, 70% Cash.
*DXY, 10 Year US Treasury Bonds and VIX are taking a hit as JPYUSD, GBPUSD, EURUSD, 30 Year US Treasury Bonds, Cryptos, Equities, Equity Futures and Commodities are all up. This is after speculation that Japan's government had intervened in currency markets by selling USD for JPY in order to protect a key JPYUSD threshold . Additionally, San Francisco Fed President Daly (currently not FOMC member) commented that the Fed should reevaluate how restrictive they need to be and that 75bp increments after November may be unnecessary . This combination is likely responsible for today's shift in market sentiment toward more Risk-On. St. Louis Fed President Bullard (FOMC member) quickly clapped back today and said that the Fed can keep raising rates until they see inflation come down meaningfully because the job market is "extremely strong" . Comments like Bullard's leave the possibility of 100bps on November 2nd still on the table. The 7th and penultimate Beige Book of 2022 released on 10/19 highlighted : a tightening job market with wage growth still intact, a slowing housing market, a continued weakening demand for production and an increase in travel/tourism from the post-Covid reopening.
