Comment:
The dollar has been on a tear this month as stronger-than-expected economic data, including hot inflation numbers, pointed to the U.S. Federal Reserve raising interest rates further and keeping them high for longer than previously envisaged. “We have learned that U.S. inflation is proving much stickier and U.S. activity firmer than we were led to believe in December and January,” said analysts at ING, in a note. “Understandably, investors are now taking the Federal Reserve hawks more seriously and have priced three more 25bp rate hikes from the Fed in March, May, and June.”
