It’s never too late to believe in Santa | MarketTalk: What’s up today? | Swissquote

Investors on Monday were shrugging off the bad news of past week – especially the one that suggested that the Federal Reserve (Fed) would cut its rates only two times in 2025 due to a too resilient US economy. But even though the equity markets looked joyful on Monday, the US 2-year papers remained offered and the US dollar erased earlier losses to finish the session higher against most majors. Meagre news and data flow should keep the focus on a more hawkish Fed. The pullbacks in the US dollar are probably good opportunities to buy the dips against most majors. As per equities, the rally extends but the questions regarding the ballooning valuations of Big Tech stocks become louder, too.
