Yen shock overwhelms central bank bonanza
Japanese intervention drives broad dollar pullback as yen surges. ECB prepared to hike in June. BoE on “active hold”.

Powell’s farewell, Fed fractures deepen. ECB caution, limited FX impact. All eyes on BoE as oil pressures sterling.

Iran, OPEC, AI and the Fed: everything in play. Supported but still lacking conviction. BoE hawkishness felt more keenly.

Dollar upside capped. EUR/USD stabilises above 200‑day. Politics to test sterling’s resolve.

A new phase, same conflict
On track to snap 3-week losing streak. Facing economic headwinds. Sterling steady, conviction still missing.
