On June 8th, Goldman Sachs economists stated that due to a stronger-than-expected labor market, they no longer anticipate a Federal Reserve rate cut this year. The bank has postponed its expectation for the Feds last two rate cuts from December 2026 and March 2027 to June and December 2027. However, Goldman Sachs chief U.S. economist, Merrick, pointed out that the likelihood of a Fed rate hike remains low, as inflation "seems unlikely to become self-sustaining." Mays U.S. job growth exceeded all expectations, demonstrating the resilience of the labor market and intensifying market bets on a central bank rate hike. Goldman Sachs continues to view a rate hike as unlikely, but has raised the probability of a small rate hike from 10% to 20%. The banks baseline forecast still expects two 25-basis-point rate cuts next year, but the probability has been lowered from 40% to 30%. Goldman Sachs also lowered its forecast for the U.S. unemployment rate this year from 4.6% to 4.4%.According to Israels Channel 13, citing a senior official, firing on Israeli territory from Iran signifies a declaration of the resumption of war.The Israeli military has detected missiles launched from Iran toward settlements in the north.Israel sounded a missile alarm, and Iran launched a missile.June 8 - The China Earthquake Networks Center officially measured a 3.2-magnitude earthquake at 1:58 a.m. on June 8 in Bole City, Bortala Mongol Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang (44.60 degrees north latitude, 81.49 degrees east longitude), with a focal depth of 17 kilometers.

Price Analysis of the US Dollar Index: DXY Retreats from 104.00, Rising Wedge Anticipated

During Thursday's Asian session, the US Dollar Index (DXY) fails to continue the previous two days' upward momentum, trading on the defensive around 103.95.

 

In doing so, the dollar index remains near the 20-year high reached earlier in the week, but for the first time in three days, the daily decline is recorded.

 

In addition to highlighting a 12-day-old rising wedge bearish pattern surrounding the multi-day top, the DXY's most recent decline also reveals a multi-day top-adjacent rising wedge formation. The slow RSI also highlights the significance of the chart pattern.

 

However, a decisive breach below 102.90 is required to validate the potential decline to 101.30.

 

During the fall, the 100-SMA and monthly low between 102.65 and 102.35 will serve as intermediate stops.

 

Until the quote continues below the indicated wedge's resistance line, approximately 104.30 as of press time, a recovery appears elusive.

 

After that, a slow climb to the September 2002 high of 109.80 cannot be ruled out.
