The US dollar (USD) traded on a positive foot this week, managing to reverse part of its recent strong decline amid the resumption of the tariff narrative and shrinking chances of a Fed rate cut later in July.

The US Dollar Index (DXY) rose to monthly peaks on Friday, faltering just ahead of the key 98.00 barrier. The Inflation Rate will be the salient event on July 15, seconded by the NY Empire State Manufacturing Index and the API’s weekly report on US crude oil inventories.
