The US Dollar (USD) is advancing again ahead of the Fed policy decision this afternoon, Scotiabank's Chief FX Strategist Shaun Osborne notes.
Monday's correction in the dollar has not run very far at all. That sell-off was premised on Day One not nearly being as aggressive with tariffs as many had feared. Currently, the market’s attention is on two significant upcoming dates, ING’s FX analyst Chris Turner notes.
In his first public appearance as the freshly-declared President of the United States, Donald Trump has reiterated several of his sweeping campaign claims and promises, including seizing control of the Panama Canal, as well as establish an "external revenue service" which will ostensibly be responsible for collecting profits from tariffs his administration intends to impose.
