The US dollar will continue to slide, come what May. And probably come what June and July. Whilst he’s reluctant to be drawn too closely on timing, NAB’s Ray Attrill, head of FX strategy, says we can expect to see the US dollar fall another 10 percent, at least, with the Aussie returning about the 70 cent mark. Phil asks if that’s the best-case scenario; one where trade deals are agreed and tariffs minimised. What if the hefty tariffs return? Or Trump deposes Jerome Powell? Or the US heads into a recession? Whichever way you spin it, Ray says the US dollar is getting weaker and it’s not a short-term change. The weaker dollar could be around for a long time.
