FOMC Will Stay Hawkish as Inflation Remains High

FOMC Will Stay Hawkish as Inflation Remains High

Information is not investment advice

Last year, the US inflation rate was at a 40-year peak while posting the lowest unemployment rate in several decades. The FOMC board has conversely tackled the inflation rates by adopting hawkish policies and increasing interest rates. Today's analysis will examine how the Dollar performs ahead of the ISM Manufacturing PMI release.

US Dollar - DXY

UsDollarDaily-2802.png

Here on the daily timeframe of the DXY, the price can be seen already reacting to the rally-base-drop supply zone. The 88% of the Fibonacci retracement and the 100-Day moving average were an added confluence for the bearish sentiment. Based on this analysis, we can expect bullish price action from the XXX-USD pairs.

USDCAD

USDCADDaily-2802.png

USDCAD has bumped into the supply zone following the bearish structure break at the highlighted horizontal arrows. The 50-Day moving average locates below the 100-Day moving average, indicating a bearish sentiment. The trendline resistance is the third signal for a bearish price movement.

Analysts’ Expectations: 

Direction: Bearish

Target: 1.32800

Invalidation: 1.36400

USDJPY

USDJPYDaily-2802.png

We can see price stalling near the rally-base-drop supply zone in line with the bias formed from the DXY chart. There is also a confluence of factors that indicate a possible bearish sentiment, including the crossing of the 100 and 200 Day moving averages, the 88% Fibonacci retracement level, and the resistance from the two moving averages.

Analysts’ Expectations: 

Direction: Bearish

Target: 130

Invalidation: 138.2

USDCHF

USDCHFDaily-2802.png

As I noticed above, a weakness in DXY will lead to a bearish reaction on charts of currency pairs with the USD as its Base currency. From a technical standpoint, based on the Daily timeframe of USDCHF, I expect to see some bearish movement based on the confluence of the rally-base-drop supply zone, the 100-Day moving average resistance, and the 88% Fibonacci retracement.

Analysts’ Expectations: 

Direction: Bearish

Target: 0.91100

Invalidation: 0.94845

In addition, you can refer to my previous article here to find my outlook on other pairs such as XAUUSD, EURUSD, and GBPUSD.

CONCLUSION

How Will BoJ Meeting Affect the Yen

Hold onto your hats, folks! The Japanese yen took a nosedive after the Bank of Japan (BOJ) left its ultra-loose policy settings unchanged, including its closely watched yield curve control (YCC) policy. But wait, there's more! The BOJ also removed its forward guidance, which had previously pledged to keep interest rates at current or lower levels. So, what's the scoop? Market expectations had been subdued going into the meeting, but some were still hoping for tweaks to the forward guidance to prepare for an eventual exit from the bank's massive stimulus
