The U.S. dollar extended its rally as selling pressure in the bond market pushed Treasury yields higher, bolstering the dollar's strength.
ECB's Christine Lagarde highlighted the subdued inflationary pressures in the eurozone, fueling expectations of a dovish stance from the ECB, which continues to weigh on the euro.
Gold remained resilient, surging to the $2,750 level in the previous session, driven by increased demand for safe-haven assets amid market volatility.
Market Summary
The U.S. dollar has continued to strengthen against major currencies, supported by a sharp rise in long-term Treasury yields, which have reached their highest level since July. The market appears to be pricing in a soft landing by the Federal Reserve, particularly as the U.S. presidential election nears. Investors are preparing for the possibility of sticky inflationary pressures in the post-election period, keeping the dollar buoyant.
On the other hand, the ECB is shifting its focus, as policymakers express concerns about inflation falling well below the central bank's 2% target. This has fueled speculation about a more growth-oriented monetary policy approach, sending a dovish signal that has led the euro to suffer its fourth straight week of losses against the dollar.
In the commodity market, gold prices have surged to a new record high near the $2,750 mark, driven by bullish sentiment in the safe-haven market amidst global uncertainty. Oil prices also saw a strong rally, with WTI crude rising over 2%, breaking the $70.00 level, suggesting a potential turnaround for the energy sector.
In the crypto market, both Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have stabilised after sliding from their recent highs, and there is potential for a technical rebound if optimism remains intact in the lead-up to the U.S. election.
