Now, the key question is whether the bearish trend in the greenback will continue […]

WTI Tops $65 For First Time Since Dec 2014 After Crude Draw, Production Record
After API reported a surprise crude build overnight, all eyes are on the DOE data this morning which showed a smaller than expected crude draw (-1.07mm vs 2.32mm exp) but still a draw (for the 10th week in a row) compared to API’s build. As Bloomberg’s Julian Lee notes, cold weather and a growing list of refineries undergoing maintenance probably cut […]
USD/CHF Under Long-Term Support
