- DXY found support in the 94.55/50 band.
- US 10-year yields rebounded beyond 2.34%.
- Attention remains on US tax reform.
US Dollar focused on US politics
The index seems to have found some dip-buyers around session lows in the boundaries of the 94.50 area, managing to rebound on the back of a better performance in yields of the US 10-year benchmark.
In fact, yields clinched daily tops above the 2.34% level earlier in the session, around 3 bps higher than daily lows.
In the meantime, the buck remains under pressure in light of headlines coming from the US political scenario, where the Republicans-led tax reform plan should take centre stage later in the NA session.
In the US data space, initial claims rose higher than expected on a weekly basis, although they managed to drag the 4-week average to levels last seen in 1973. Further data saw wholesale inventories expanding at a monthly 0.3% in September, matching estimates.
US Dollar relevant levels
As of writing the index is losing 0.27% at 94.63 and a breakdown of 94.41 (low Nov.3) would open the door to 94.15 (21-day sma) and finally 94.03 (23.6% Fibo of the 2017 drop). On the upside, the immediate resistance aligns at 95.15 (high Nov.7) seconded by 95.90 (38.2% Fibo of the 2017 drop) and then 96.63 (200-day sma).
