Recently published by Kelvin Wong
WTI crude remains under pressure, sliding 7% from its early-September peak as weak US labor data weighs on demand. A brief rebound to US$64.27, driven by a modest OPEC+ output hike and an increase in geopolitical risk premium, quickly lost steam. With resistance at US$64.10/64.36 holding, the short-term bias stays bearish, exposing support at US$61.30–60.10 ahead of key US consumer sentiment data later today.
AUD/USD extended its rally, hitting 0.6690 on 12 Sep and testing key resistance at 0.6660/0.6680. The Aussie outperformed peers, with the US Dollar Index down 1.67% over 5 days. Softer US labor data and expectations of Fed cuts, alongside firmer China core inflation and rising iron ore futures, support AUD strength. Key near-term levels: support at 0.6620, resistance at 0.6760.
Since Fed Chair Powell’s dovish pivot at Jackson Hole on 22 Aug, the Dow Jones has lagged peers, slipping 0.3% while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 hit fresh record highs and the Russell 2000 gained 0.7%. Markets now fully price a 25 bps Fed rate cut on 17 Sep, with high odds of two more cuts by year-end. The Dow’s technical setup shows bullish consolidation, with key support at 45,290/45,175 and resistance at 45,780 (upside trigger level) for 46,060/46,180 and 46,365/46,400.
USD/JPY remains choppy within a four-month “Ascending Wedge” as initial gains faded, leaving the pair near 147.40 by 11 Sep. Markets have shifted focus from Japan’s political change to BoJ policy, with rising PPI hinting at higher core inflation, supporting gradual rate hikes. Meanwhile, the narrowing US-Japan 10-year yield spread reduces dollar appeal, suggesting downside pressure on USD/JPY ahead.
