Before the release of the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium, the dollar surged impressively due to the positive initial jobless claims data.

In anticipation of Jerome Powell’s address at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium today, the dollar surged impressively by over 0.6% yesterday, propelling the dollar index to a current trading position above $104.00. This rise was amplified by the release of initial jobless claims data, which underscored the persistent tightness in the labour market. However, this upbeat dollar performance exerted downward pressure on gold prices, simultaneously leading to a decline in U.S. equity markets. Investors are speculating that the Federal Reserve might adopt a forceful monetary policy to effectively combat inflation. Meanwhile, oil prices remain buoyant, hovering near the $80 mark. This follows a report indicating a shortage in European oil stockpiles, specifically a 3% decline in storage within the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) region during the latest week.

DOLLAR_INDX, Daily

The US dollar orchestrated a resounding comeback, leveraging a wave of optimistic economic data. Anticipation swelled as the market eagerly awaited Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s potentially hawkish stance at the esteemed Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium. The Department of Labor report revealed an unforeseen drop in US Initial Jobless Claims, descending from 240K to 230K, surpassing the market’s modest prediction of 240K. In addition, the Census Bureau unveiled a robust surge in US Core Durable Goods Orders for the previous month, leaping from 0.20% to 0.50%.

The dollar index is trading higher while currently testing the resistance level. However, MACD has illustrated diminishing bullish momentum, while RSI is at 70, suggesting the index might enter overbought territory. 

Resistance level: 104.20, 105.75

Support level: 102.15, 100.75

EUR/USD,H4

The dollar exhibited notable strength, advancing by over 0.6% yesterday to reach its highest point since June. This surge was catalysed by hawkish remarks from several Federal Reserve officials regarding the future of interest rates. These statements arrived just before Jerome Powell’s scheduled address at today’s Jackson Hole Economic Symposium. Furthermore, the recent job data released underscored the continued tightness within the U.S. labour market. This, in turn, offers the Federal Reserve more flexibility to consider raising interest rates. Adding to the market’s attention, the upcoming speech by the ECB chair at the same economic event is also closely monitored by investors with anticipation of insights into the strength and direction of the euro.

The EUR/USD has broken below its support level and exhibited a sluggish trend for the pair. The RSI flows closely to the oversold zone while the MACD moves downward, suggesting a bearish bias for the pair.

GBP/USD,H4

The Sterling faced a substantial decline of almost 1% yesterday, driven by a strengthening dollar. The dollar index has now reached a trading level above $104. This impressive rise in the dollar was fueled by hawkish statements from multiple Federal Reserve officials, who emphasised the potential for further rate hikes by the Fed. Contrastingly, the UK encountered a setback due to a PMI reading that fell short of expectations. This weaker economic data posed challenges for the Bank of England (BoE), hindering its ability to pursue an aggressive monetary policy, even though the country’s inflation rate remains notably distant from its targeted 2%. The BoE Deputy Governor speaking at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium today is closely watched by investors to gauge the strength of the Sterling. 

The Sterling has broken below its support level, adding that the RSI as well as the MACD declining, suggesting that the Sterling is trading in a bearish momentum. 

Resistance level: 1.2640, 1.2780

Support level: 1.2540, 1.2460

The USD/JPY pair surged as US Treasury yields rebounded on the heels of robust US economic data. All eyes were on the Jackson Hole meeting for insights into global central banks’ monetary stances. Concurrently, China’s ban on Japanese seafood in the wake of the Fukushima wastewater issue added to trade tensions. The international response remained uncertain, possibly escalating sanctions and further weighing on the Japanese Yen.

USD/JPY is trading higher following the prior breakout above the previous resistance level. However, MACD has illustrated diminishing bullish momentum, while RSI is at 64, suggesting the pair might enter overbought territory.
