Odaily Odaily News: Swissquote analyst Ipek Ozkardeskaya said in a report that the dollar fell slightly as investors bet that the Federal Reserve will further cut interest rates this month. Non-farm payrolls data released last Friday showed that job growth improved in November and wages rose, but the unemployment rate unexpectedly rose. Ozkardeskaya said the data reinforced market expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points at its December meeting. At the same time, although investors seek safe-haven assets amid global political turmoil, these expectations support the case for a weaker dollar. LSEG data shows that the market currently believes that there is an 85% chance of a 25 basis point rate cut in December. (Jinshi)
