U.S. Dollar Do Da Hustle Like Borat at a Disco! Will Fed Give It a Bump?

U.S. Dollar Makes Like Me Up and Down!

Jagshemash! Borat here reporting live from... well not Kazakhstan but close enough! The U.S. dollar she is like my neighbor Nursultan Tulyakbay sometimes strong sometimes weak. Today she's trying to be firmer on the yen after news say American peoples are becoming cautious with money. Like when I tried to buy ice cream with pocket sand – not good!

Retail Sales Softer Than My Wife's Cooking

The news says retail sales are softer than expected. This is bad! But spending still supported by solid wage growth. Is confuse! Like when I try to understand American dating rituals. Very complicated! But maybe this gives the Federal Reserve the idea to cut the interest rates even by 100 bps – a big cut like my cousin Bilo's moustache when he accidentally uses weed killer!

Trade and War – The Great Satan's Double Trouble!

The trade war with China and the conflict in Middle East makes everyone nervous. Like when I accidentally insulted Pamela Anderson in front of her husband. Very tense! Trump says he wants 'real end' to nuclear dispute with Iran. Is good! But what about trade war? Is very difficult to make a trade deal with the Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba. He no like mankini!

Bank of Japan Do the Hokey Pokey

The Bank of Japan (BOJ) did nothing! Very boring! They stand pat on rates. The yen swings like my mood after drinking fermented horse milk. The dollar up a little but who knows what tomorrow brings? Maybe another scandal involving me and a politician…Very nice!

Oil Price Go Up Like My Blood Pressure

The conflict in Middle East makes oil price go up! Like when I see a beautiful woman! Brent crude is higher. Very expensive! The euro and the pound are down. Even Trump is signing deals to lower tariffs from Britain. Is like a crazy kazakhstanian circus!

Fed's Decision – Will They or Won't They? I like!

Everyone is waiting for the Federal Reserve's decision! Will they keep rates on hold? Will they give hints about future cuts? The world is watching! Like when I tried to host a dinner party for sophisticated Americans. Chaos! But maybe just maybe the Fed will do something crazy. High five!
