On April 4, according to people familiar with the matter, US Republicans are considering creating a new tax bracket for people with incomes of $1 million or more to offset part of the cost of the tax bill, which is in stark contrast to the Republican Partys decades-long opposition to tax increases. People familiar with the matter said the new top tax rate would be between 39% and 40%. Trump administration officials and allies on Capitol Hill are beginning to draft a tax plan, hoping to pass it in the coming months. In addition, Republicans are also considering raising the top tax rate on incomes over $626,350 from the current 37% to 39.6%, which means the top tax rate will return to the level set by former President Obama.US President Trump: Britain is happy with US tariffs.Foreign central banks held U.S. Treasuries worth -$1.76 billion in the week ending March 27, compared with -$14.896 billion in the previous week.Trump trade adviser Navarro: Tariffs are to protect the American people and increase revenue.April 4th, as a new wave of tariffs upends global markets, the dollar has wiped out all of its gains since Trump won the election last November. "The dollar bear market has arrived and its roaring," said Paresh Upadhyaya, director of fixed income and currency strategy at Amundi. He added that the dollar could fall 10% this year as the United States "teeters on the brink of recession." This is in stark contrast to earlier this year, when Trumps policy plans such as tax cuts and tariffs were seen as a reason to bet on a rebound in the dollar. In February, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessant said Trumps policies were "completely consistent" with a strong dollar, confirming the governments strong dollar stance. "We may be in the early stages of a structural sell-off in the dollar," said Ed Al-Hussainy, strategist at Columbia Threadneedle Investment.

After the release of Japanese labor market data, the USD/JPY has fallen significantly. With today's trading, the asset dropped below the consolidation range it had been making between 138.62 and 138.85. Sharp losses are being seen in the major at 138.27, and if it manages to break through the key support level, we could see even lower prices.

 

The unemployment rate in Japan has been reported by the Japan Statistics Bureau to be 2.6%. Although the revised Jobs-to-Applications ratio of 1.29 is an increase from both earlier estimates and the prior release's 1.27, the difference is not statistically significant. In spite of this, there is no denying that employment data has stayed good, and yen bulls have been successful as a result.

 

US dollar index (DXY) is in a period of adjustment after hitting a 20-year high of 109.40 on Monday. Previous to this, the asset had been held by bulls in response to Federal Reserve (Fed) chief Jerome Powell's hawkish interest rate guidance preference despite a slowdown in US economic activity.

 

Since maintaining price stability is the Fed's primary concern, officials at the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium highlighted that the current interest rate hike cycle will likely continue. Inflation is at 8.5%, which means that households are being hit with the headwind of ever-increasing prices for consistently purchased goods. While a result, American businesses and consumers must remain patient as they await a revival of the economy.
