Fed refocus as monetary matters once again – MM #135

Markets moved once again on Yellen’s testimony and the data. Is the Fed taking the reins once again after a month of Trump in office?  We discuss where the President has more impact and where the Fed  makes or breaks markets.

  1. Trump tweets and impact: Time is passing by and infrastructure spending has disappeared. The phenomenal tax plan is keeping markets optimistic as well as deregulation, but this is not enough for the dollar.
  2. Fed refocus: The  economy is doing well according to retail sales, inflation and housing data. And Yellen is more optimistic, but can we expect a hike in March? We discuss.
  3. Preview: A quieter week awaits us with the Fed having its impact once again with the FOMC meeting minutes amid other events.

After taking a short course about forex. Like many forex traders, I've earned a significant share of my knowledge the hard way. Macroeconomics, the impact of news on the ever-moving currency markets and trading psychology have always fascinated me. Before founding Forex Crunch, I've worked as a programmer in various hi-tech companies. I have a B. Sc. in Computer Science from Ben Gurion University. Given this background, forex software has a relatively bigger share in the posts.
