Dollar Outlook Remains Positive Near-Term But Less So Longer-Term -- Market Talk
Dow Jones2026/09/28 10:261026 GMT - The dollar could remain firm in the near term but the longer-term outlook is becoming less favorable for the currency, Societe Generale's Kit Juckes says in a note. Elevated oil prices, robust U.S. economic data and a more risk-averse global environment support the dollar, he says. Further out, November's midterm elections make it difficult for President Trump to maintain accommodative fiscal policies that have supported the economy and the dollar, he says. "The world's major savings economies are saving less than they once did, while the U.S. is having to pay more to attract the investment it needs." The DXY dollar index rises 0.1% to 101.101.
