☆ Dollar rallies to fresh one-year high against a beaten-down yen

[1/2] Japanese Yen and U.S. dollar banknotes are seen in this illustration taken March 10, 2023. Japanese Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki said the government would keep monitoring the currency market and respond appropriately. The comments had little immediate impact on the yen, which is down almost 14% against the dollar this year. "Given the move in U.S. Treasuries of course the yen is not rallying yet," he said, referring to U.S. bond yields. The dollar on Monday rose to 151.88 yen , its highest level since October 2022.

REUTERS/Dado Ruvic/IllustrationLONDON, Aug 3 (Reuters) - The dollar touched a four-week peak against major peers on Thursday after upbeat labour market data a day earlier, while sterling remained lower after the Bank of England downshifted to a smaller 25 basis point hike. The dollar index , which measures the currency against six major peers, rose as high as 102.84, its highest level in four weeks. Earlier, the currency fell to a four-week low of 143.89 per dollar. The New Zealand dollar similarly earlier slid to its lowest since end-June at $0.6063, having tumbled more than 1% on Wednesday. "The U.S. dollar actually strengthened against most other currencies (and) there were risk-aversion trades across all the asset classes."

☆ Dollar slips as Fed hike cycle nears end; focus on US inflation
  + stars: | 2023-07-11 | by ( Rae Wee | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
Several Fed officials said on Monday the central bank will likely need to raise interest rates further to bring down still-high inflation, but that the end to its current monetary policy tightening cycle is getting close. U.S. interest rate expectations have been a key driver of the dollar since the Fed began its tightening cycle last year. A survey from the New York Federal Reserve showed on Monday waning near-term inflation expectations among Americans, who said last month they were expecting the weakest near-term inflation gains in just over two years. The dollar/yen pair is particularly sensitive to U.S. yields as interest rates in Japan are anchored near zero. Elsewhere, the Australian dollar gained 0.16% to $0.6687, while the New Zealand dollar added 0.06% to $0.6216.

☆ World stocks at 5-week high, earnings in the spotlight
  + stars: | 2022-10-26 | by ( Dhara Ranasinghe | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
But European shares headed higher (.STOXX), having opened softer, drawing some comfort from upbeat bank earnings. Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE) posted a better-than-expected jump in third quarter profit, while British bank Barclays (BARC.L) too beat profit forecasts on a trading boom. MSCI's World Stock Index (.MIWO00000PUS) touched a five-week high, while Asian shares rallied. The Bank of Canada is widely expected to raise rates by another 75 bps later in the day to contain stubbornly high inflation. In Australia, inflation raced to a 32-year high last quarter as the cost of home building and gas surged.
