Personal opinions today:
Fed chairman Powell delivers a speech and statement at the hearing. The dollar gained on expectations that the Fed, concerned about rising inflation and improving trade relations with the United States, will not need to cut interest rates at the end of this month. The U.S. dollar rose, while European and commodity currencies (Australian, New Zealand and Canadian dollar ) fell. The dollar improved, safe-haven funds flow out the yen and gold, money flowed into stocks, the Dow rose.
UK could be delay a Brexit with the European Union by the end of October, raising expectations of a hard risk for the British pound that also follows the euro weakness. If there is no good news to boost European currencies in the short term, the trend is expected to remain weak.
Today, the market focus on the Fed chairman Powell speech, pay attention to his speech, predict the monetary policy orientation, looking for when to cut interest rates or increase intention and timetable. In addition, the bank of Canada is expected to raise its target interest rate to 2 percent today. But with the global economy slowing and interest rates loose, it remains to be seen tonight whether the bank of Canada will raise interest rates as expected, and watch for fluctuations in the Canadian dollar.
