UNCOVERED: Dollar retreats on soft us cpi report - The Untold Story

The dollar index (DXY00) Tuesday fell by -0.79%.  The dollar retreated Tuesday after the US Apr CPI was weaker-than-expected and showed the smallest increase in 4 years, a dovish factor for Fed policy.  Also, Tuesday’s stock rally curbed liquidity demand for the dollar.

US Apr CPI rose +2.3% y/y, slightly weaker than expectations of +2.4% y/y and the smallest year-on-year increase in 4 years.  Apr CPI ex-food and energy rose +2.8% y/y, unchanged from March and right on expectations.
