He remarked that it would have made sense for the Fed to begin tightening earlier.

 

The outcome of the United States midterm elections will have a significant impact on the DXY and show the degree of political stability in the economy. Consequently, the race for the 435 House of Representatives seats and the 34 Senate seats will be closely observed.

 

Later this week, the release of the US inflation rate will remain a focus point. As a result of higher interest rates and falling fuel prices, inflationary pressures are expected to ease.
