EBC Forex Snapshot, 24 Sep 2024
The dollar wobbled on Tuesday as traders ramped up their bets on the pace of future US interest-rate cuts after the Fed signalled more cuts coming this year.
The euro was little changed. A survey compiled by S&P Global showed euro zone business activity sharply contracted this month as manufacturers are confronting a mix of sagging global demand.
In contrast, US business activity was steady in September, but average prices charged for goods and services rose at the fastest pace in six months, possibly pointing to an acceleration in inflation in coming months.
