Stocks tick up but dollar hits 2025 low amid mixed macro signals

Stocks tick up but dollar hits 2025 low amid mixed macro signals

The dollar reached a low not seen since 2025 on Thursday, while Wall Street stocks continued their upward trend despite various factors influencing the market. Traders were faced with low inflation numbers, escalating tensions in the Middle East, and uncertainty surrounding the U.S.-China trade agreement.

Reports on U.S. consumer and producer inflation for May showed that overall price pressures remained subdued, primarily due to decreases in the prices of gasoline, cars, and housing. However, economists anticipate that inflation will rise as the effects of U.S. tariffs start to take effect.

The weakening dollar, which has depreciated by approximately 10% against a basket of currencies this year, fell to its lowest level since April 2022 following lower-than-expected U.S. inflation data for May. This raised speculation that the Federal Reserve might resume interest rate cuts sooner than anticipated.

Despite these economic indicators, global stocks continued their rally since early April, with the MSCI All-Country World index nearly reaching an all-time high. On Wall Street, major indices like the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite all posted gains.

However, shares of Boeing took a hit, dropping by nearly 5% after an Air India aircraft crashed in Ahmedabad, India, with reports indicating it was a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner. In contrast, Oracle shares surged by 13% after the cloud service provider raised its annual revenue growth forecast.

European equities experienced their fourth consecutive decline as trade optimism faded, with the STOXX 600 index down by 0.3%. Stocks in China and Hong Kong also saw declines, particularly in the tech sector.

The U.S. administration announced the relocation of U.S. personnel from the Middle East due to heightened security risks, causing a brief spike in oil prices before settling back down. Iran declared its intention to maintain its right to uranium enrichment, citing a potential military strike alert from a neighboring country.

Safe-haven assets like the Swiss franc, Japanese yen, and gold saw increases in value, with the dollar weakening against these currencies. Gold prices rose to $3,387 an ounce, while the dollar fell by 1.1% against the franc and 0.7% against the yen.

President Trump’s statement regarding the issuance of trade deal letters to numerous countries in the coming weeks added to market uncertainty, leading to concerns about the impact of his tariff policies. The euro strengthened against the dollar, reaching its highest level since October 2021.

In response to the latest inflation data, U.S. Treasuries rallied, pushing yields lower. This data gives the Federal Reserve room to wait and gather more information on the effects of tariffs and trade negotiations on price stability before making any rate decisions.

Oil prices, which have fallen by 20% in the past year, remained steady around $69.65 a barrel, adding another layer of complexity to interest rate projections. Overall, the market continues to navigate through various challenges, with traders closely monitoring economic indicators and geopolitical developments for future market moves.
