FX Trends: G10 currencies: Time to refocus on US policy

30 June 2025

Key takeaways

  • With geopolitical risks receding for now, markets will refocus on US trade and fiscal and monetary policy over the coming few weeks.
  • We look for consolidation in the US Dollar Index, but with downside risks.
  • The JPY is likely to strengthen, while the GBP may weaken in the weeks ahead.

Our tactical view

For example, an up arrow against EUR/USD means that the EUR is expected to appreciate against the USD over the coming weeks.
