USD downside eyed in 1H26 amid political uncertainty
"December’s softer-than-expected US core CPI suggests tariff pass-through may have peaked. Yet, data distortions from the government shutdown mean markets still expect the Fed to keep rates steady at its January meeting."
"Inflation remains secondary to labour data for policy decisions.
