Welcome back to Forex Focus on rawfin.tv. I'm your host breaking down today's market movers. The Dollar Index faces pressure today. A key US economic indicator plunged to a 2008 crisis low of 0.84. This fuels expectations of a dovish Fed pivot. EUR USD holds near 1.1709 calculated from USD EUR at 0.8549. The weak US data provides a bullish catalyst. We expect upward momentum. Geopolitical risk heightens volatility in exotics. The Hormuz market impact news is a key driver. This weighs on higher-beta carry trades.
