- Split Vote Uncertainty: A rare split vote highlights internal division over balancing growth support against tariff-induced inflation.
- USD Under Pressure: The dollar weakened broadly as markets digested the cut and the Fed's neutral, data-dependent guidance.
2. Yen Volatility Ahead of BoJ
- BoJ Hike Expectations: Traders are positioning for a potential rate hike next week, supporting the Yen against the Dollar.
- Intervention Risks: Speculation remains high regarding government intervention as the JPY fluctuates near key psychological levels.

3. RBA Hawkish, China Drags AUD
- RBA Holds Steady: The RBA kept the cash rate on hold, with Governor Bullock maintaining a hawkish inflation outlook.
- China Data Weighs: Weak inflation figures from China are capping AUD gains, signaling soft demand from Australia's key partner.
- Mixed AUD Signals: The Aussie dollar faces opposing forces: domestic rate support versus external deflationary pressures from China.
4. Gold Rallies, Oil Hits Support
- Gold Near Records: Gold prices surged past $4,230/oz, boosted by the Fed cut and safe-haven demand amid geopolitical risks.
- Oil Price Slump: Crude oil plunged into critical support levels due to oversupply concerns and weakening global demand forecasts.
- Diverging Commodity Trends: Precious metals are outperforming energy assets as investors seek safety over growth-sensitive commodities.
5. Tariffs and Data Gaps
- Inflationary Tariffs: Recent tariffs are creating upside inflation risks, complicating the Fed's path to further easing in 2026.
- Data Blind Spots: A recent government shutdown has delayed key economic reports, limiting visibility for policymakers and traders.
- Stagflation Fears: The combination of slowing growth and tariff-driven price pressures is reviving concerns about a stagflationary environment.
