While the earlier data likely reflects the uncertainty surrounding banking instability for most of March, the softer data across the board means this is certainly something that deserves more attention if recession worries are to pick up from here.<\/p>\n Refinitiv font<\/span><\/p>\n dxy<\/span> (basket of US dollars)<\/span><\/p>\n The dollar staged a recovery after initially falling in the moments after the data release. The US dollar is likely to engage in a tug-of-war as the market’s growing expectations of rate cuts in the second half keep the greenback suppressed, while on the other hand , the greenback still has safe-haven appeal (as data softens) and may rise on more dovish rhetoric from Fed officials.<\/p>\n source: TradingView<\/span><\/p>\n US 2-year yields<\/span><\/p>\n Rates on the shorter side of the yield curve, such as the US dollar, saw an immediate drop, but it differs from the dollar’s response in that it has so far failed to recover to levels seen before the data release .<\/p>\n source: TradingView<\/p>\n S&P 500<\/span><\/p>\n The S&P500 edged lower after the release of the ISM services data, setting the index on course for a second day of declines. Prior to that, US stocks were in a fairly bullish phase, rising as risk appetite returned to the market as the Fed’s recent supportive measures eased concerns about US regional banks .<\/p>\n Next on the calendar are US initial jobless claims, given softer employment data this week, and US non-farm payrolls on Friday, which fall on a holiday, which means that the potential for highly volatile moves remains a possibility given the lower expected liquidity. .<\/p>\n — Written by Richard Snow for DailyFX.com<\/span><\/p>\n Contact and follow Richard on Twitter:<\/span> <\/span>@RichardSnowFX<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n element within element.
