Dollar Taking A Hit, Can You Guess Why ?

From Thursday last week it's been a tough run for the currency...

With plenty of US related geopolitical news, traders are potentially showing their disquiet as other currencies go up versus the Dollar.

From Thursday last week it's been a tough run for the currency.

Generally speaking global news stories rarely affect currency rates unless they are specifically around a certain countries denomination.

Scheduled news stories and economic sentiment usually have more weight in exchange rate fluctuations.

With that in mind here's a view of what the rest of the week looks like....and it's a strong week.

Australian inflation is first out of the traps with annualised growth of 3.6% expected.

However it's after that that the bigger stories start, and it's all about interest rate decisions.

The Bank of Canada is expected to keep its base rate at 2.25% on Wednesday.

Later in the evening sees the US rate decision with the FED expected to keep their rate at 3.75%.

The FED press conference could be the big Dollar mover.

Economic calendar:
AUS: Wednesday 12:30am Inflation Report
CAN: Thursday 14:45pm BoC Interest Rate Decision
US: Thursday 19:00 FED Interest Rate Decision
US: Thursday 19:00 FOMC Press Conference

So what next, what should you do?

As ever we look forward to keeping you in the loop and so please look out for our next update.

Sterling Recovers.

The question is will the recovery keep running...

Sterling ended the year on the ascension against both the Dollar and the Euro.

It started the year in similar fashion reaching 3 month highs this week.

The question is will the recovery keep running.

With global tensions rumbling it's a difficult question to gauge.

Will traders and investors start moving towards perceived safe havens such as gold which could bolster the Dollar?

On a more granular level, trading continues in a normal fashion responding to scheduled news rather than the more spectacular global news stories.

There's Chinese inflation numbers overnight with annualised growth of 0.9% which precedes big Canadian and US data tomorrow.

Canada is expected to release an unemployment rate of 6.6% at the same time as the much anticipated US non farm payrolls.

Analysts are predicting employment growth of 60,000 jobs.

The jobs data in the US has been under close scrutiny over recent months with the reported numbers often in contradiction to the Presidents rhetoric.

Economic calendar:
CHN: Friday 01:30 Inflation Report
CAN: Friday 13:30 Unemployment Rate
US: Friday 13:30 Non Farm Payrolls

A Big Week For The Pound.

and the Bank of England Decision on Thursday...

UK unemployment is now at 5.1% for the 3 months to October.

This is the highest since Covid and possibly reflects a cooler economic environment.

Tomorrow sees the inflation number released where annualised growth is expected to modestly tick down to 3.5%.

That should support the anticipated rate cut by the Bank of England on Thursday to 3.75%.

All in all it's a lively week of activity all around.

There are options for taking risk off the table if you want to discuss things with your dedicated account manager.

Those options include forward contracts and limit / stop orders.

If that weren't enough there's also US non farm payrolls for November being reported this afternoon.

40,000 jobs were expected to have been added, and this will be very closely watched as the number is relatively poor compared to a thriving economic backdrop.

Economic calendar:
- US: 13:30 Non Farm Payrolls
- UK: Wednesday 07:00 Inflation Report
- UK: Thursday 12:00 BoE Interest Rate Decision

Ask Us about Forward Contracts.

It could be a good option for you, here's why...

At the moment, Bank of England Interest Rate is 4%, they will announce the next decision on Thursday 18th December 2025.

The days leading up to the 18th December are critical to currency markets and pose a high degree of potential risk.

Interest rate decisions are the primary focus for banks and traders.

Australia, the US, the UK and Europe are all making major decisions before the end of next week.

Rate cuts are highly anticipated for both the States and here in the UK.

Therefore, as it's expected, it's already "priced into" exchange rates. In other words traders have already traded with the belief that a rate cut will occur.

It's when things go against expectations that high volatility occurs.

Certainly, here in the UK, there's a mixed bag of news moving markets. Is there a "black hole" in public finances....or isn't there?

Does the Bank of England need to cut rates to stimulate growth? Or does it need to keep rates where they are to try and curb inflation?

We will find out over the coming days.

Here at Regency FX we can help mitigate risk if you have an upcoming currency conversion with the use of limit orders and forward contracts.

For more information on either of those options please give your dedicated account manager a call.

Economic calendar:
UK: Friday 07:00 GDP Report
UK: Thursday 18th DEC Interest Rate Decision.
