US Dollar: Upcoming data to support hawkish Fed stance – BBH

Brown Brothers Harriman’s Elias Haddad notes the Dollar has eased from recent highs as lower Oil prices and comments from New York Fed President John Williams temper rate expectations. However, upcoming US August PCE and September ADP data are expected to show sticky inflation, stronger consumer spending and resilient labor demand, which BBH says should reinforce the Fed’s hawkish bias and support further USD strength.
