  • US Nonfarm Payrolls report from April underperformed, showing a lower-than-expected increase.
  • The odds of a rate cut in September increased, which seems to be applying pressure on the USD.

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is visiting the 105 level with sharp losses at the end of the trading week. This comes after Friday’s report of weak US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) figures from April, which made markets dump the USD.
