The dollar, the world’s dominant currency, has been in hot demand since the start of the pandemic. But that trend has started to unwind a bit in 2025. Year-to-date, the dollar has given back 3% against a worldwide trade-weighted index and 5% compared to an index of advanced economy currencies, notes John Eade, president of Argus Research.
The Federal Reserve meets this week. Spoiler alert: Essentially no one thinks a rate cut is likely. Meanwhile, it’s another peak week for corporate earnings. So far, 65% of S&P 500 Index (SPX) companies have reported and earnings are up 13% from the prior-year quarter, notes John Eade, president of Argus Research.
The major indices closed with nice gains on Wednesday, but well off the highs achieved earlier in the session. The S&P 500 Index (SPX) gained 1.4%, while the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) added 2.1%. So, it shouldn't be hard to tell what sector led – technology. But the bigger technical picture remains troubling, observes John Eade, president of Argus Research.
While the stock market is washed out, it recently was very oversold on many timeframes and sentiment remained awful. That could be the cause of days like Wednesday, when there was a big pop. But there is still plenty to worry about when looking at the technical condition of the market, notes John Eade, president of Argus Research.
