U.S. Dollar Index Cash (DXY00)
U.S. Dollar Index Futures Market News and Commentary
The dollar index (DXY00) dropped to a 7-week low on Friday and finished down -0.41%. The dollar tumbled on Friday after the US July payroll report showed an unexpected decline in nonfarm payrolls and a smaller-than-expected increase in average hourly earnings, dovish factors for Fed policy. Also, Friday’s rally in stocks curbed liquidity demand for the dollar. The payroll report cut the chances of a Fed rate hike at next month’s FOMC meeting to 44% from 58% before the report.
US July nonfarm payrolls unexpectedly fell by -23,000, weaker than expectations of +80,000 and the first decline in 5 months. June payrolls were revised downward to show a +20,000 increase from the previously reported +57,000. The July unemployment rate unexpectedly fell -0.1 to a 13-month low of 4.1%, showing a stronger labor market than expectations of no change at 4.2%.
US July average hourly earnings rose +0.1% m/m and +3.2% y/y, weaker than expectations of +0.3% m/m and +3.5% y/y.
