USD Recovers Demand Following Yesterday’s Overstated Decline
Market Reactions to Central Bank Decisions
This week, financial markets responded strongly to central bank announcements. After Federal Reserve Chair Powell's remarks, which were interpreted as more aggressive than the official FOMC statement, the U.S. dollar surged. However, following updates from the Bank of England and the European Central Bank, traders quickly reversed course, leading to a significant sell-off of the dollar.
Currently, the swaps market is pricing in three interest rate increases each from both the ECB and the BOE this year, while only minimal tightening is expected from the Federal Reserve. Despite the sharp decline in the dollar yesterday, it has since regained ground. Ongoing geopolitical uncertainty appears to be prompting short-term traders to avoid betting against the dollar.

Société Générale Chief Strategist Edwards warns that the true trigger for the AI boom is not inadequate productivity, but whether cheap money can continue to flow. Overseas long-term government bond yields continue to rise, while AI giants are issuing large amounts of debt, with hundreds of billions of dollars in new bonds needing to be absorbed by the same group of buyers. This is reminiscent of the 1990s, when Asia maintained prosperity through short-term dollar borrowing.
