[MARKET ANALYSIS] DXY is lacklustre following its choppy and mixed post-NFP performance

DXY: -0.1%Remains lacklustre after yesterday's mixed and ultimately flat performance despite the stronger-than-expected data from January, which resulted in a push back of market pricing for the next Fed rate cut to July from June. Nonetheless, there was some concern about the sustainability given that private employment was behind most of the growth driving the headline increases in Non-Farm Payrolls, while the final annual BLS benchmark payroll revisions through to March 2025, saw total jobs revised down by 862k. Furthermore, the greenback is also not helped by trade uncertainty after it was reported that US President Trump is privately considering exiting the North American trade pact.EUR/USD: +0.1%Lacks firm direction after its recent return to sub-1.1900 territory, and with officials further calling for additional EU debt.GBP/USD: +0.1%Ekes slight gains but with upside limited after recent whipsawing and as participants await UK GDP data.USD/JPY: -0.4%Continues its recent downward trend with a return to beneath the 153.00 level, with the pair not helped by in-line PPI data from Japan and jawboning by top currency diplomat Mimura, who said they are closely watching markets with a high sense of urgency and are not lowering their guard.Antipodeans: AUD/USD +0.1% / NZD/USD +0.2%Kept afloat in rangebound trade amid the mildly positive risk sentiment in Asia-Pac and with hawkish comments from RBA Governor Bullock, who stated the Bank will monitor data and act if inflation becomes entrenched, warning that further rate hikes may be needed.
