The US dollar index (DXY) has had a significant dip from opening flat and is expected to extend its losses after going below Wednesday's low of 104.66. As a result of the Federal Reserve's (Fed) announcement of a 75 basis point rate hike, the DXY became very volatile (bps). Although the long-term assumption was 50 basis points, last week's announcement of a stronger US inflation data of 8.6% boosted the chances of a big rate hike. Sharply declining US Treasury rates imposed intense selling pressure on the asset. On Wednesday, yields on 10-year US Treasuries plummeted 5.50 percent. The benchmark yield at the time of writing is 3.29 percent. After nearly 28 years, the Fed has issued a 75-basis-point rate increase.

The Federal Reserve considers it a success if inflation rates fall to roughly 2 percent and the unemployment rate remains at 4.1%.

In contrast, the Retail Sales Control group was recorded at 0%, which was below both expectations and the prior reading of 0.5%.
