The report pointed out that the US dollar started the week on a weak note, which may be partly related to the markets early positioning for the expected Federal Reserve interest rate cut later this week. ING Bank said that the weakening of the US dollar was also affected by the benign external environment. Global stock markets continued to rise slightly due to the dual effects of resilient business confidence and the expected decline in core borrowing costs. The report stated that this situation would typically prompt capital to flow into risky assets and non-US dollar markets, thereby reducing investor demand for the safe-haven currency, the US dollar. ING Bank said that the focus of the market on Tuesday will be US retail sales data.
