BBDXY Builds On Tuesday Gains

USD

Weakness in benchmark equity index futures and generally USD-supportive yield differential moves (save some exceptions in the UK short end, which allow the GBP to sit atop the G10 FX performance table on the day) help keep the greenback underpinned as U.S. participants filter in.

  • This comes after the BBDXY had its firmest day (in net % change terms) since March on Tuesday.
  • The index last sits just shy of 1,225, with bulls eying the Dec 19/18 highs (1,228.07/20) as the next meaningful resistance zone.
  • A general USD bearish consensus, a revaluation of end ’23 greenback weakness and cleaner positioning (with some sell-side names pointing to marginally net short USD positioning) will also be factoring into moves.
