  • US Dollar Breakout How Far Will It Run?

6
  • Something very important happened the past few
    days The US Dollar rallied above the important
    resistance trendline. I pointed out a few weeks
    ago. Heres an updated chart

8
  • As you can see, the greenback rallied strongly
    off technical support at 94 (red line) in
    mid-October. The bullish momentum is carrying the
    currency above (green circle) the downtrend line
    (green line) from the early 2015 highs.

9
  • Without question, we have a US Dollar breakout on
    our hands.

10
  • Whats sending the greenback higher?

11
  • Last weeks FOMC meeting revealed the US central
    bank is closer to hiking interest than many
    analysts and economists had expected.

12
  • Decidedly hawkish adjustments to the Fed policy
    statement has investors rushing into the worlds
    reserve currency.

13
  • According to Fed Chairwoman Janet Yellen a rate
    hike may come as early as the next FOMC meeting
    on December 16th, 2015.

14
  • Whats this Dollar rally mean for commodities?

15
  • As youre likely aware, the precious metals space
    has already had the spots knocked out of it the
    past few days. Gold is down 73 an ounce (-6)
    from the intraday high on the day of the FOMC

16
  • announcement, while silver has plunged just over
    1 (-7.5). Given the recent price action in
    precious metals, its not hard to figure out the
    impact of a rising dollar on commodities. Heres
    the deal

17
  • Should the US Dollar continue rallying in coming
    months assets like gold, silver, platinum,
    palladium, and crude oil, will face
    continuedopposition to higher prices.

18
  • But there is a caveat

19
  • Should we see an unexpectedly bad economic data
    point this month or next, the US Dollar breakout
    could fail. And as you may know, a failed
    breakout can cause a violent price reaction in
    the opposite direction.

20
  • In other words, a break below the red line in the
    chart above is still possible.
  • Heres where it gets very interesting

21
  • In an appearance before a House of
    Representatives committee yesterday, Janet Yellen
    said the Fed would consider negative interest
    rates should the US economy deteriorate in a
    significant way.

22
  • Folks, if anythings capable of sending the US
    Dollar sharply lower- thats it. Bottom line
    Economic data over the next few weeks will give
    essential clues to whether the Fed will raise
    rates in December or not.

23
  • But no matter what the Fed has in store for us,
    commodity investors should be monitoring the US
    Dollar chart closely.
