USD strength versus commodities14 Sep 2022 15:24
As Churchill once said “Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.”
I think we saw a taster, last week, of the reaction when markets think the rate rises in the US are starting to near a plateau (or lesser rises), because inflation is no longer rising.
Of course immediately after, worse inflation data came out, meaning the expectation of even harsher rate rises, and a jump in the dollar yet again.
At some point soon though we’ll be back to the mentality of last week…with markets starting to be think ahead to declining rate rises, and decreasing dollar strength.
Once that happens, as we saw the other week, you’ll start to see a rising tide floating the miners back up imo.
