The dollar index, which tracks the greenback's value against majors, looks set to confirm a falling wedge breakout – a bullish reversal pattern – on the weekly chart.

The index has flipped the channel hurdle into support, currently at 90.00. A close above would confirm the breakout and open the doors for a rally to 94.72 (September high).

The daily chart also indicates the path of least resistance is to the higher side. The bullish outlook will be invalidated if the index finds acceptance under the former hurdle-turned-support of the inverse head-and-shoulders pattern breached to the higher side earlier this week.

AUD/USD stays defensive below 0.7150 after Chinese data

AUD/USD remains on the back foot below 0.7150 in the Asian session on Tuesday, close to an over three-week low touched the previous day. US bond yields hold near multi-year highs ahead of the FOMC meeting and oil-driven inflation risks, supporting the US Dollar and weighing on the currency pair. Mixed Chinese activity data for August also fail to inspire the Aussie.

USD/JPY extends gains toward 155.00 amid USD resurgence

USD/JPY keeps pushing higher toward 155.00 early Tuesday, looking for more upside, as traders await the FOMC and BoJ meetings this week. Meanwhile, Fed rate-hike bets and oil-driven inflation risks keep US bond yields near multi-year highs, supporting the US Dollar and the pair. That said, a more hawkish repricing of the BoJ normalization path might continue to underpin the Japanese Yen and could limit USD/JPY's upside. .

Gold struggles to capitalize on its modest Asian session uptick, and remains close to a one-month low, which it touched the previous day. The commodity currently trades just below the $4,300 mark as traders move to the sidelines ahead of the crucial two-day FOMC policy meeting, starting later today.

Dogecoin clings to EMA support as recovery lacks conviction

AI, markets and a more complicated world

The week started with upward pressure on energy prices, US 10-year yield breaching the 5% mark and very uncomfortable questions regarding AI, and this time, it was not about the circular deals, financing capabilities, investor greed, earnings, the impact of AI on different sectors and businesses, the parabolic rise in market prices, PE ratios and so on.

Venezuela’s 65-billion-barrel Oil deal could reshape America’s inflation fight

The United States (US) has secured unprecedented access to part of Venezuela’s vast Oil reserves. The timing is particularly significant as the war with Iran is disrupting Middle Eastern supplies, keeping energy prices elevated and reviving concerns about inflation.
