US Dollar Index: Two-way risks within bearish channel – OCBC

ING analyst Chris Turner has pointed out that recent dovish comments from Federal Reserve official Christopher Waller have contributed to a decline in US yields and the Dollar, while simultaneously boosting equities and high-yielding foreign currencies.

Turner anticipates the DXY to face resistance and experience a slight downward drift in the short term.
