Valentin Maronov is head of G ten 120 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: four x research for the folks at Credit Agricole. He joins, us, Now, Uh, 121 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: what's what is the feeling about the dollar? I mean, 122 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: we've two steps backwards one step forward. Does it continue 123 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 1: to strengthen or not? Good morning? Yes. Indeed, we believe 124 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: that the trends sort of dollar from here on the 125 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: upside as investors continue to reprise the risk of h 126 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: that tightening potentially as soon as July or indeed June. 127 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: So we do see the risks for say, currencies like 128 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: the Australian dollar or indeed the Canadian doll on the 129 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 1: downside against the US dollar, the dollar could appreciate some 130 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: more from here. The question I guess for the fat 131 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: is how much could it appreciate? Because in two thousand fourteen, 132 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: basically the dollar went up twenty two percent. Since then 133 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: it's down two tents of eight percent, So you know 134 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,520 Speaker 1: it does it Does it make a big move up 135 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 1: that threatens the US amy or not? That's the inherent uncertainly, 136 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: as many clients are highlighting, you cannot have both higher 137 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: US rates and higher US dollar that kind of mutually exclusive, 138 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: especially given that the FAT is focusing on a dollar 139 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: part of them. Measures of financial conditions or dollar appreciation 140 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: represents at times unwarranted tightening in those financial conditions, which 141 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: ultimately means that the fact has to delay any hikes. 142 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: All that taken into account, however, I do think that 143 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: there is for the dollar are on the on the upside, 144 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: especially because there is still that persistent divergence between where 145 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: the dollar is at the moment and where saying measures 146 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 1: of the fundamental value of the dollar is telling us 147 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: it should be. That is, things like great differentials between 148 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: SADE the two year dollar rates and the average gtail 149 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: spread is still suggesting that the dollar belongs at the 150 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,599 Speaker 1: top of the range, that is, the highs from earlier 151 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,599 Speaker 1: in the year. So with that in mind, despite the 152 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: I'll say, the persistent uncertainty about the FAT outlook, I'll 153 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: still think that the risks for the dollar incoming months 154 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: still firmly on the upside. Well, but I want to 155 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: go around the world to the end. Because of the 156 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 1: common from Mr Usso today suggesting a five yen move 157 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: over two days would be excessive, raising the question of 158 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: whether they would intervene the four I think four of 159 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 1: the five times that that's happened in the last ten 160 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: years or so has been when the Bank of Japan 161 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: took well extraordinary monetary policy efforts. So is it really 162 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: up to them? Uh? Well, I do think that they're 163 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: still very much in control in the Minister of Finance. 164 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: Minister Tarasso was quite vocal in recent days. What's quite 165 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: interesting that those comments persist despite the fairly vocal opposition 166 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: by Jack Louise, the US Treasury Secretary. Actually they both 167 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,319 Speaker 1: really tarras when Jack Lui disagree on what constitutes disruptive 168 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 1: move And the fact that the Japanese are still despite 169 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: that vocal opposition last week and the G seven meeting, 170 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: despite that, the Japanese continue that suggest that I think 171 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 1: that they may indeed have to put them on over 172 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: the mouth and at some point indeed intervene.
