From September 2022 to January, the Dollar weakened by over 6%. Where will the USD go from here? Economists at JP Morgan expect to see a cycle of Dollar weakness.
Expensive starting point vs. fair value
“After ten years of strength, the Dollar is close to its highest level since 2001 and expensive versus long-term variables that define its ‘fair value’, such as the current account.”
Widening growth differentials
From 2012-2022, the rest of the world only grew 0.5% more than the US, a stark difference versus the 2.3% from 2001-2011. This gap is set to widen again in favor of the rest of the world to 1.2% over the next five years. This year’s positive upgrades to growth in Europe and China versus rising probabilities of a US recession is a move in that direction.”
Shrinking interest rate differentials
“By October, US 10-year yields were 2.2% higher than other developed markets. Since then, yield differentials shrank to 1.7% as other central banks joined the tightening trend. This gap is set to shrink further should the Fed pause and soon start cutting rates, as seems more likely after the regional banking stress.”
