The US Dollar (USD) is starting off Thanksgiving week on the defensive as markets react to the President-elect Trump’s selection of Scott Bessent as Treasury Secretary, Scotiabank’s Chief FX Strategist Shaun Osborne notes.
“Bessent, a hedge fund manager with more market-friendly views (pro-growth, hawkish on the Federal deficit, favours gradualist approach to tariffs) is viewed as someone who may be able to temper the president-elect’s more aggressive policy initiatives. He has also said he wants to preserve the USD’s status as the world’s reserve currency. Stocks are mostly firmer in Europe and US equity futures are positive.”
“Treasurys are outperforming other major bond markets by 5-6bps. The minor drift in the USD does not mean its post-election rebound is over. I had noted last week that some market participants may want to square up USD longs into the US holiday break this week and the Bessent news is a good excuse to do that. The USD is unlikely to lose too much ground, particularly because much of the USD’s recent strength has been tied to solid data reports and the resulting adjustment in Fed policy expectations.”
“And what data reports we do get this week from the US—GDP, PCE primarily—might just encourage markets to rein back Fed easing expectations just a bit more. Core PCE is expected to show a 0.3% increase in the October month for a 2.8% rise in the year, up from 2.7% in September. Firm data may bolster Fed hawks’ concerns that progress on inflation has slowed. Recall that core PCE based around 2.6% Y/Y in June.”

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
