On Wednesday, the US dollar index (DXY) dropped significantly as the US Consumer Price Index fell (CPI). As the prospect of a major rate hike by the Federal Reserve (Fed) in September diminished due to a sharp slowing in price pressures, the DXY collapsed like a house of cards. When the asset broke through the consolidation formed between 106.00 and 106.80, it fell to 104.64. Despite the temporary pause, the market's downward trend will continue.

Normalized CPI drops 60 basis points

Inflation in the United States for the year was reported at 8.5%, which was less than the 8.7% predicted and 9.1% reported in the preceding report. An annual reduction in inflation of this magnitude in July, brought on by a dramatic drop in oil prices, sent a strong signal of market fatigue to participants. Without a doubt, the Federal Reserve (Fed) will announce further rate hikes; but, the Fed's long-term hawkish stance will take a major hit.

There will be sustained confidence in the market.

After taking a number of policy tightening steps, including raising interest rates and halting the bond-buying program, Fed policymakers heave a sigh of relief. In order to put capital into risk-perceived assets, investors have been waiting for a month with strong employment data and a significant drop in price pressures. It's likely that your desire to take risks will last for a longer period of time in the future.
