DXY: +0.1%
- Ekes slight gains overnight, albeit with price action rangebound after a lack of major catalysts over the weekend and with US participants away on Monday.
EUR/USD: Flat
- Trades little changed amid the absence of any major macro catalysts and with light newsflow from the bloc, while comments from ECB's Lagarde and news that the ECB is to make its repo backstop available to other central banks across the world, did little to spur price action.
GBP/USD: -0.1%
- Holds on to most of Friday's spoils but with price action contained by resistance around the 1.3650 and following comments from BoE's Mann that the UK economy is sluggish and tepid, with consumers spending less due to being scarred by high inflation.
USD/JPY: +0.2%
- Edged higher and briefly returned to above the 153.00 level in the aftermath of the weaker-than-expected preliminary GDP Q4 data for Japan.
Antipodeans: AUD/USD +0.2% / NZD/USD -0.1%
- Price action is mixed and confined to within tight parameters amid the mixed risk appetite in the region and with a lack of tier-1 data from either side of the Tasman.
This stability in the dollar suggests a cautious market outlook, with nearby currencies like the EUR and GBP showing muted movements as they respond to local commentary rather than strong macroeconomic indicators, signaling uncertainty ahead of upcoming data releases.
