USD exchange rate today January 17, 2025 on the world market

The Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the USD against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF), stopped at 108.95 – down 0.18 points compared to trading on January 16, 2025.

The dollar weakened against the yen as weaker-than-expected U.S. economic data and growing confidence that the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates sent the greenback to its lowest in nearly a month against the Japanese currency.

Recent comments from BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda and his deputy Ryozo Himino have made it clear that a rate hike will at least be discussed at next week's policy meeting. The market sees a 79% chance of a 50 basis point hike.

Japan's annual wholesale inflation held steady at 3.8 percent in December as food costs remained high, data released Thursday showed .

The dollar fell 0.81 percent against the yen to 155.2, its lowest since December 19.

“We expect there to be a subtle behavior in the U.S. dollar, that [the dollar] may be stronger against some other currencies, but weaker against the Japanese yen,” said Kristina Hooper, global market strategist at Invesco US. “I think the general direction of the yen and the general direction of the dollar suggest that we will have a stronger yen versus the dollar.”

The dollar was weaker against the euro, up 0.1% to $1.03, as traders digested a mix of mixed economic news to assess the prospects for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut this year.

Data from the Commerce Department's Bureau of Statistics showed U.S. retail sales rose 0.4% last month after a revised increase the month before. Meanwhile, the number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits rose more than expected last week, but remained at levels that suggest a healthy labor market.

The Philadelphia Fed business index jumped to 44.3 in January, the only surprise, as the forecast was for minus 5. That sent the dollar index — which measures the greenback against a basket of foreign currencies — down 0.05% to 108.97.

Weaker consumer price data on Wednesday continued to dominate market action, fueling expectations that the Fed will still push for two rate cuts this year, said Amo Sahota, director of Klarity FX in San Francisco.

But signs of deflation are emerging as inflation could climb again, depending on the new administration's trade policies.

“Overall, the market mood is a little more upbeat, but it remains the same through Monday,” Sahota said.

That's when Donald Trump returned to the White House with a number of policies that analysts expect will boost growth as well as increase price pressures.

Another market focus on Thursday is Trump's nomination hearing for Scott Bessent to head the Treasury Department.

Bessent is expected to keep a tight rein on the US budget deficit and use tariffs as a negotiating tool, mitigating the expected inflationary impact of the Trump administration's economic policies.

“So far, he hasn’t really said anything that’s too far off from what we were expecting,” Sahota said. “This is a government … that needs to address its spending. So we’re looking at government spending to come down. They really want to do tax cuts again, we’ve seen that headline come up.”

Traders increasingly worried about inflation reacted with relief to the U.S. data released on Wednesday, buying stocks and sending the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note down more than 13 basis points.

Treasury yields fell on Thursday, after Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller said interest rates could still be cut three or four times this year if U.S. economic data continues to weaken.

Sterling fell 0.13% to $1.2228 against the dollar, having also fallen sharply against the yen on Thursday as investors focused on monetary policy divergence following last week's sell-off in government bonds and sterling.

China's yuan, seen as a frontline of tariff risk, was stuck near the weakest level in its trading range at 7.3316.
