What are the interest rate expectations from the major central banks? USD Index (DXY) closed June sharply lower, hitting a new year low of 96.77, the lowest level since March 1, 2022. The index fell -2.67% in June, marking a clear shift in sentiment towards the US dollar. All major currencies rose against the dollar this month, with the euro (EUR) and Swiss franc (CHF) posting the biggest gains. EURUSD gained 3.86%, the largest monthly gain among the major currencies. This move came despite another rate cut by the European Central Bank, which lowered its policy rate to 2.00%. The market seems to believe that the ECB is now ready to pause after ten consecutive rate cuts, while the Fed remains stuck at 4.50%, delaying its own easing cycle. Traders are increasingly expecting the Fed to act sooner than previously expected, putting pressure on the dollar. USDCHF also fell strongly as rising geopolitical tensions saw funds flow into the Swiss franc in search of safety. Concerns that the United States could be drawn into the ongoing Iran-Israel conflict have increased the appeal of the CHF. Further weakness in the dollar was due to growing political pressure. Donald Trump unexpectedly sent a handwritten note to Fed Chairman Powell, accusing him of costing the country "millions of dollars" by delaying rate cuts and claiming that rates should have been at 1%. Trump also hinted that Powell could be replaced as early as January, raising questions about the future direction of monetary policy. Markets are now closely watching whether the Fed will buckle under pressure or hold its ground. Regardless, the sell-off in the dollar in June reflects everything from concerns about the US deficit, to expectations of big rate cuts in the future, political meddling, and growing global risks.
