USD/JPY has barely moved despite tumbling US Treasury yields and a sharp selloff in AI stocks. Can elevated energy prices continue to offset the pressure?

USD/CAD has printed a clear bearish reversal pattern after an extraordinary September surge, but confirmation may depend heavily on how US Treasury yields react to Friday’s payrolls report.

Strong US growth and hawkish Fed pricing continue to support USD/JPY, while intervention risk appears to be kicking in at lower levels

USD/CAD is trading at its lowest level since early June as data divergence builds. Attention now shifts to US inflation and whether Fed rate hike bets continue to dwindle.

Coordinated intervention has pushed fundamentals and technicals into the background for now. The next chapter will likely be written by Friday's payrolls report.

Weak US payrolls and rising wages weigh on the dollar and complicate the Fed’s path to rate cuts.
