📉 USD Retreats After Warsh Nomination — What Traders Need to Know

The U.S. dollar briefly rallied after Kevin Warsh’s nomination as Fed Chair, as markets priced in a more hawkish leadership. That move quickly faded as fundamentals remained unchanged.

🔎 Key Points:

‱ No shift in Fed policy, rates, or liquidity

‱ Rally was headline-driven, not macro-driven

‱ USD continues to underperform G10 currencies YTD

📊 Trading Bias:

‱ DXY: Bearish — sell rallies

‱ EUR/USD: Bullish

‱ GBP/USD: Bullish

‱ AUD/USD: Bullish

‱ USD/JPY: Bearish

‱ USD/CHF: Bearish

⚖ Market Regime:

Current positioning remains RISK-ON

‱ USD weakness supports equities, crypto, and high-beta FX

‱ Markets rejecting tighter-policy narrative

🔁 What Would Change the Bias:

‱ Inflation surprise (CPI / PCE)

‱ Clear Fed tightening signal

‱ Liquidity contraction or major risk event

🧠 Takeaway:

Personnel changes don’t move markets.

Policy changes do.

Trade the macro, not the headline.
