The dollar index (DXY00) today is down by -0.12%.  The dollar is trading defensively ahead of this afternoon’s FOMC decision.  Heightened speculation the Fed will opt to cut the fed funds target range by 50 bp today instead of 25 bp is weighing on the dollar as swap markets show that the odds of a 50 bp rate cut rose to 66% today from 52% last Friday.  The dollar recovered from its worst levels after today’s US housing starts and building permits report rose more than expected, a hawkish factor for Fed policy.

US Aug housing starts rose +9.6% m/m to a 4-month high of 1.356 million, stronger than expectations of 1.318 million.  Aug building permits, a proxy for future construction, rose +4.9% m/m to a 5-month high of 1.475 million, stronger than expectations of 1.410 million.
