📊 NordFX Weekly Forex Forecast: Quarter-End Flows - USD Funding, Gold, Oil and Crypto Before July Q2 closes out on Tuesday, June 30, and quarter-end rebalancing is adding extra noise to an already jumpy market. 💵 USD: New Fed Chair Kevin Warsh held rates at 3.50%-3.75%, but the tone is hawkish - May inflation hit 4.1%, and markets now price nearly three rate hikes this year. The Dollar Index hit a 13-month high above 101.80. EUR/USD sits near 1.14 despite the ECB's first hike since 2023 - the rate gap is just too wide. Expect short-term USD funding to tighten into Tuesday as dealers do their usual quarter-end repo shuffle, then ease into July. ✨ Gold: trading near $4,000-4,070/oz, down for a 4th straight week on the strong dollar, though still up over 20% year-on-year. Central banks bought near-record amounts in Q1, and almost 90% plan to keep adding - dips still look buyable medium-term. 🛢️ Oil: WTI near $68-69, Brent near $72, the lowest since before the Iran conflict, as Gulf supply and Hormuz shipping recover. Crude is down over 20% in four weeks, but the truce is fragile - fresh talks just shifted to Doha, and one bad headline could flip it fast. 📉 Crypto: Bitcoin near $59,000-60,000, the weakest since 2024, hit by ETF outflows and rotation into AI stocks. Sentiment is deep in "extreme fear" - crypto is trading like a risk asset, not a hedge. 🌍 This week: watch the ISM PMI, the US jobs report, and any Doha headline - that's what's moving gold, oil and the dollar together right now.
