Dollar holds near one‑week flat as markets eye Fed and China data
Dollar stays broadly steady as Fed posture and weak Chinese data offset each other.
The US dollar remained near flat for the week, supported by mixed signals from the Federal Reserve and softer Chinese trade data.
The Dollar Index hovered around 105.3, while the yuan slipped 0.4% amid concerns about exports. Traders are pricing in one possible rate cut by mid‑2026, but remain cautious until clearer inflation trends emerge.
Meanwhile, China’s export growth slowed markedly, adding to global risk‑off sentiment. The stability of the dollar suggests safe‑haven flows are intact despite global uncertainty.
