After Friday’s consolidation session for the DXY, intraday losses so far are putting something of a negative spin on the charts for the index which may be a ‘tell’ that markets are leaning towards some reduction in USD exposure ahead of Jackson Hole in the event that Powell dials back the inflation rhetoric somewhat.
