Impact of Higher Oil Prices and Federal Reserve Policy on USD
Higher oil prices have been shown to support the dollar globally in the short term, with oil shocks amplifying the USD-positive impact due to supply conditions. Additionally, the influence of oil prices on USD strength is further heightened by supply shocks and inflation dynamics.
The Federal Reserve’s restrictive monetary policy plays a significant role in contributing to the impact of rising oil prices on the USD. As a result, policy responses to inflation have further amplified the USD-positive impact of oil shocks.
While the US terms of trade benefit from higher oil prices and potentially lead to a more persistent upside risk to the USD, there are risks of a lower American currency globally by year-end due to rising commodity barrel prices. This is reflected in Bank of America’s forecast of a decline in the dollar value, with the EUR/USD pair expected to reach 1.15 by the end of the year.
Market Fluctuations and Economic Indicators
Recent market fluctuations have seen stocks under pressure on speculation of the Federal Reserve keeping policy on hold following an inflation flare-up. This was accompanied by the Euro falling as the European Central Bank held rates and signaled a possible first cut in June.
Concerns over inflation were raised as the US consumer price index topped forecasts for the third consecutive month, leading to expectations of the Fed not rushing to lower interest rates after hotter-than-forecast consumer-price figures.
In the financial market, Treasury 10-year yields surged above the 4.5% level, causing the Euro to fall against the dollar while German bonds remained lower. Additionally, the dollar rose, the pound remained unchanged, and cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and ether experienced an increase in value.
On the corporate front, diverse highlights included ICE considering including EU debt in bond indexes, Tesla’s CEO visiting India, and Lufthansa reaching a wage accord with its cabin crew. Stock futures declined, reflecting a broader fall in European stocks and the MSCI World index.
