The U.S dollar hit new lows

The U.S dollar hit new lows on Friday against numerous counterparts as traders continued to price in expectations of a rate cut this up coming Wednesday. In addition to trader expectations, U.Michigan Consumer sentiment reported a lower result dampening trader views of the USD even further. Commodities continued to rally as Crude oil hit a record price $91.10 per barrel in electronic trading, dragging gold along with it. In addition the Japanese government reported that the core consumer price index fell 0.1% in September from a year earlier, this report strengthened traders thoughts that Japan will continue to leave interest rates at 0.5% until next year.
The end of each month is always a volatile time for currencies as hedge fund managers buy and sell, trying to add extra returns on to their portfolios. The economic calendar is relatively light today; therefore this trading session will continue to take its cue from last week’s sentiment, while trader’s thoughts regarding Wednesday’s decision will only add to the action.
