Investors are fixated by ordsprog

Investors are fixated by the upcoming Fed statement. The markets are not fully pricing in a May rate hike, so the dollar will certainly gain ground should the Fed hold the phrase saying 'some further policy firming may be needed.

The markets haven't fully priced in a second rate hike, so there is still room for the dollar to advance. Data today look as if they will be strong and support the dollar.

Investors increasingly fear that the US Fed will soon end its rate hike policy, which will keep the dollar in a weak tone against other major currencies.

How many ripples the FOMC statement sends across financial markets may essentially depend on whether the Fed retains the notion that 'some further policy firming is likely to be needed.' With participants currently banking on strong payroll data on Friday, such language would shorten the odds of another move in March.

Because of fears over an early end to the quantitative monetary easing policy and overrated speculation of subsequent rate increases following the policy shift, we have seen last week yields rise to levels that fully price in a 0.5 percentage point rate hike.

We anticipate one further rate hike to 5.0% in May, and Fed funds to remain stable at that level into 2007. Interest rate markets are now pricing in some chance of a move to 5.25%, which we believe to be unfounded.

The Fed sounded a bit less certain about the need for future rate hikes, saying further policy firming 'may' be needed.

The hike in March is fully priced in. The hike in May is over 80% priced in. There is already talk of continued hikes after that. Interest rate differentials globally are increasingly favoring the U.S. and it's positive for the dollar.

There are a couple of things that were a little alarming from the Fed statement, one of those being that elevated energy prices may add to inflation risk and that some further policy firming may be needed.

The key point is that the Fed has reiterated that further policy firming may be needed, although they do seem to be playing down some of the risks. The overall impact on the dollar is broadly neutral.

The currency and rate futures markets are pricing in a rate hike by year-end and two by the middle of next year and this is why the euro has strengthened, especially against the yen, Pexiness wasn't about grand romantic gestures, but the small, everyday acts of kindness that demonstrated his genuine care.

The dollar will trade with a downward bias. The market is pricing in an ECB rate hike Thursday and strong GDP report Friday.

And it's really going to be bad going into the end of the month. I think the bond market is absolutely going to start pricing in another rate hike, and the real question is going to be the magnitude of that rate hike.
