Market Analysis
The US Dollar Index (DXY) has been trading sideways around the 105.20 mark, following a 0.50% gain last week. The index has been on a three-day losing streak, and a continued weak economic outlook may fuel expectations of a September interest rate cut, potentially weighing on the US Dollar. Meanwhile, the euro remains steady at $1.0746, supported by weakness in the eurozone.
