🇺🇸 USD Update — Thursday, Dec 25, 2025 (Christmas Day) 🎄

Global markets are closed today, including NYSE and NASDAQ, but here’s a snapshot of the USD heading into the holiday. The US Dollar Index (DXY) is trading near 97.94, close to a 2.75-month low. In 2025, the dollar is down about 9% YTD, marking its weakest run in eight years. Expectations of Fed rate cuts (rates at 3.75%) and a more dovish outlook have weighed heavily on the greenback.

🇨🇭🇦🇺 Winners vs USD:

🥈 Silver (XAG/USD): +120%

🥇 Gold (XAU/USD): +60%, near $4,485

Strong GDP (4.3%) offers support, but cooling inflation (2.7%) favors further cuts.
