World market developments

The US Dollar Index (DXY) measures the greenback's movements against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF) increased by 0.33%, currently at 98.51.

The US dollar rose across the board, a day before the US releases its inflation report, which could determine whether the US Federal Reserve (Fed) will cut interest rates.

Against the yen, the greenback rose 0.2% to 148.085 yen.

The euro fell 0.3% to $1.16123, while the pound fell 0.2% to $1.34335.

“The dollar is trading slightly higher against all the major currencies, although the volatility is generally quite modest,” said Michael Brown, market analyst at online brokerage Pepperstone in London.

A very slight hawkish adjustment in Fed policy expectations appears to be supporting this trend, likely stemming from investors unwinding positions in anticipation of the inflation report.”

The dollar weakened last week as investors revised down expectations for a Fed rate cut after data showed the US jobs market and manufacturing were slowing.

Several Fed officials have recently expressed growing concerns about the job outlook, while signaling a readiness to cut interest rates as early as September.

If inflation cools, expectations for a rate cut next month could be reinforced. However, if there are signs that President Donald Trump’s tariffs are pushing up prices, the Fed could pause its easing plans.

The core US consumer price index (CPI) rose 0.3% in July, pushing annual inflation to 3%, according to a Reuters survey.
