Meanwhile, investors seek fresh cues regarding whether the pain the US Dollar will continue next week.
Analysts at ING said, “The dollar is unlikely to enter a sustained downward trend after Thursday's worse-than-expected US NFP report. The data aren't weak enough on their own to trigger a significant repricing in rate rise bets for the Federal Reserve, he says. While markets scaled back the prospect of imminent tightening, there is still more than 25 basis points (bps) priced in by December. The institution expects the DXY to stabilize in a range of 100.0-101.500 in coming weeks.
Next week, major triggers for the US Dollar will be the US ISM Services Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) data for June and Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes for the June policy meeting.
