The 'Sell America' narrative continues to dominate market sentiment. The US Dollar Index (DXY) hit its lowest level since February 2022 on Tuesday, as investors positioned ahead of the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) monetary policy decision due on Wednesday.

The slip comes as geopolitical tensions between the United States (US) and Europe, following President Donald Trump’s attempt to buy Greenland, are still unresolved. Also, the ADP Employment Change 4-week average was reported at 7.75K, down from the previous report of 8K.
