United States. The US dollar is strengthening against the Japanese yen today while posting moderate losses against the euro and the British pound.
By Sagar Dua The USD/JPY pair continues to trend higher in a medium-term uptrend, repeatedly testing resistance at 147.60 (38.2% Fibonacci retracement) throughout the week without a decisive breakout.
By Sagar Dua The EUR/GBP currency pair remains locked within a broader long-term uptrend, yet is undergoing a short-term correction near 0.8660. Sterling found a brief tailwind following the Bank of England’s latest policy meeting, where officials trimmed the benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points to 4.00% in a bid to bolster economic growth.
By Sagar Dua The AUD/USD pair is trading near 0.6530, buoyed by renewed weakness in the U.S. dollar and stronger-than-expected Australian macroeconomic data. Investors are increasingly pricing in a softer monetary policy stance from the Federal Reserve, while the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) may hold its cash rate steady for longer than previously anticipated.
By Sagar Dua The USD/CHF currency pair is trading at 0.8074 during today’s session, with the Swiss franc holding steady despite a sharp decline against major peers following the imposition of U.S. sanctions. Market sentiment remains cautious, reflecting both geopolitical developments and shifting central bank expectations.
By Sagar Dua The USD/CAD pair is holding close to 1.3742 in Asian trading, with the Canadian dollar moving in step with the U.S. dollar’s own swings. In fact, the loonie has been tracking the greenback so closely in recent weeks that its direction feels almost entirely dictated by U.S. policy and macro data. What’s catching analysts’ attention now is a subtle but notable change in North American trade flows.
By Sagar Dua The US dollar has come under renewed pressure against the British pound, showing mixed performance versus the yen and euro. Fresh weekly jobless claims rose to 226,000, up from 219,000 previously and surpassing forecasts of 221,000. The four-week average slipped slightly to 220,730, and total continuing claims reached nearly 2.0 million. This confirms the cooling trajectory of the US labor market and increases the likelihood that Federal Reserve officials will resume dovish policy discussions.
By Sagar Dua The EUR/USD pair is back in the spotlight after reclaiming lost ground, climbing to the 1.1700 region as positive macroeconomic signals continue to support the single currency. The euro’s rebound is built on a foundation of robust data: Eurozone retail sales for June surprised to the upside, advancing 0.3% month-over-month following a previous decline, and surging by 3.1% annually—well ahead of forecasts. Meanwhile, the region's PMI numbers signal that, despite lingering global trade headwinds, the underlying resilience of the euro area economy remains intact.
By Sagar Dua The GBP/USD pair is climbing toward the 1.3400 resistance level, rebounding from 1.3170 after disappointing US nonfarm payroll data. July saw a jobs gain of just 72,000 versus the 100,000 forecast, while prior figures were sharply revised down from 147,000 to just 14,000. US unemployment ticked up from 4.1% to 4.2%, keeping pressure on the greenback.
By Sagar Dua The AUD/USD pair continues its corrective uptrend, trading at 0.6512 during the Asian session, buoyed by impressive macroeconomic data from Australia.
By Sagar Dua The USD/JPY pair remains locked in a corrective uptrend, currently trading near 147.35. The yen continues to fluctuate sideways as expectations for a shift in the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy have moved forward, with investors now pricing in possible rate hikes sooner than previously forecasted.

By Sagar Dua USD/JPY is trading at 147.78, continuing a mild downtrend after the U.S. dollar weakened on disappointing labor market data. July's non-farm payrolls came in at just 73,000 (vs. 106,000 expected), and prior data was revised sharply downward, putting renewed focus on a potential Fed rate cut in September.
