Dollar jumps after Fed chair Jerome Powell said it would take “material change” in the outlook to justify another rate cut. After today’s cut to 1.50-1.75%, he noted that risks to outlook have shifted more positively. Though, he added that Fed will need to see considerably higher inflation before considering raising interest rate.
USD/JPY surges along with the comments in the press conference. It’s now pressing 109.31 key resistance level. Decisive break there will raise the chance of medium term reversal and turn focus back to 112.40 key resistance.
