Atlanta Fed unleashed dovish talk, US Dollar beaten down.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Dollar Index which traded against a basket of six major currencies slumped to its recent low from yesterday over the dovish speech was unleashed from Atlanta Federal Reserve. According to Reuters, Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic appeared a speech on Monday, which claimed that it “might make sense” for the Federal Reserve to pause further interest rate hikes following expected half-point rate increases over the next two months as the central bank assesses the impact on inflation and the economy. As Fed might pause rate hike implementation, it would likely to reduce the risk-off return of investors, dragged down the appeal for the US Dollar. Besides, US President Joe Biden considering to reduce tariffs on China, which claimed on Monday. The reducing tariffs on China would likely to boost up the international transaction between US and China, dialed up the market optimism toward economic progression in US, and prompting investors to shift their capitals toward risk-appetite assets such as stocks. As of writing, the Dollar Index edged up by 0.22% to 102.32.<\/p>\n
