A calming of trade tensions between the U.S. and China also added support to the greenback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of 04:00 ET (08:00 GMT), the U.S. <a href=\"https:\/\/hub.onequity.com\/education\/19\/12\/2024\/understanding-the-dxy-index-a-key-to-forex-and-global-market-insights\/\">Dollar Index<\/a>\u2014which measures the <a href=\"https:\/\/hub.onequity.com\/education\/14\/06\/2024\/unlocking-the-global-currency-market-a-beginners-guide-to-forex\/\">currency<\/a> against a basket of six major peers\u2014rose 0.3% to 98.960, extending its recovery from a three-year low touched earlier on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Trump Backs Off Fed Criticism<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The dollar found renewed strength after President Trump softened his tone toward Fed Chair Jerome Powell, whom he had recently blamed for not cutting interest rates more aggressively. Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Trump clarified, \u201cI have no intention of firing him. I would like to see him be a little more active in terms of his idea to lower interest rates.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just last week, Trump had signaled a desire to replace Powell\u2014comments that rattled markets and raised concerns about the Fed\u2019s independence, a key pillar supporting the U.S. dollar\u2019s role as a global reserve currency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to the dollar\u2019s momentum, Trump struck an optimistic tone on U.S.-China trade talks, suggesting a potential agreement could result in a \u201csubstantial\u201d reduction in tariffs. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent echoed this sentiment, calling the current tariff situation \u201cunsustainable\u201d and predicting a near-term de-escalation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analysts at ING commented, \u201cWe could witness a period where the dollar is tossed around by headlines about Fed independence and market-friendly U.S. tariff updates. What\u2019s clear is that no other G10 currency has a higher positive beta to trade news than the dollar.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Euro Slips on Weak German PMI<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The euro gave up recent gains, with EUR\/USD down 0.3% to 1.1394, pulling back from a more than three-year high recorded earlier in the week. The retreat was driven partly by weaker-than-expected data out of Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The German flash composite PMI, compiled by S&amp;P Global, fell to 49.7 in April from 51.3 in March\u2014its lowest level since December\u2014dropping below the key 50.0 level that signals contraction in private sector activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ING noted, \u201cThe ECB views tariffs as a greater threat to growth than to inflation. A weak PMI reading further supports dovish market expectations, including the pricing in of 75 basis points in rate cuts by year-end.\u201d Still, analysts added, \u201cEUR\/USD remains largely driven by the dollar. Another push above 1.15 is possible if concerns over Fed independence regain traction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pound Steady Ahead of U.K. PMI Data<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Elsewhere, GBP\/USD edged 0.1% lower to 1.3314 ahead of the U.K.\u2019s PMI releases. ING pointed out that, \u201cUnlike the ECB, the Bank of England gives less weight to PMIs, with inflation remaining its core focus. Upcoming retail sales data for March may show a decline following February\u2019s strong results.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Yen Pressured by Weak Manufacturing Data<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In Asia, the Japanese yen weakened, with USD\/JPY up 0.2% to 141.75, recovering from two days of declines. The move followed disappointing manufacturing data in Japan, which highlighted continued weakness in the sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The au Jibun Bank manufacturing PMI fell to 48.5 in April, missing forecasts and marking the tenth consecutive month of contraction amid concerns over U.S. tariffs. However, Japan\u2019s services PMI offered a silver lining, rising to 52.2 from 50.0 in March. As a result, the composite PMI ticked higher to 51.1, up from 48.9 previously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Yuan Firms on Trade Optimism<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, USD\/CNY slipped 0.3% to 7.2963, with the yuan benefiting from Trump\u2019s positive comments on ongoing trade discussions with China.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. dollar strengthened on Wednesday, building on the previous session\u2019s rebound as market sentiment improved following President Donald Trump\u2019s more conciliatory remarks regarding Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell.
