The USD to EGP exchange rate has recently shown notable fluctuations influenced by various economic factors. Currently, the USD is trading at 90-day lows around 47.52, which is approximately 1.9% below its three-month average of 48.44. This range highlights stability, with the currency pair fluctuating between 47.52 and 49.49.

Analysts indicate that the US dollar has regained strength recently, recovering from losses following the Federal Reserve's September policy meeting minutes. This comeback occurred despite a broader risk-appetite driven by positive developments in global geopolitical tensions. Future USD performance may hinge on the upcoming University of Michigan consumer sentiment index, where a decline in consumer morale could lead to further USD weakening.

In terms of significant news affecting the dollar, expectations surrounding upcoming inflation data may greatly influence the Federal Reserve's monetary policy direction. Additionally, analysts point to the ongoing shift away from the US dollar as a reserve currency, which could cap excessive gains for the USD.

On the Egyptian side, recent developments paint a more favorable picture for the EGP. Notably, Egypt’s annual urban consumer price inflation has eased to 11.7%, down from 12% in August, marking a sustained trend of declining inflation rates. Coupled with a narrowing current account deficit, which fell to $2.2 billion, analysts highlight improvements in remittances and tourism revenues as key factors supporting the EGP.

Moreover, the Central Bank of Egypt has recently cut interest rates, which may also provide a supportive backdrop for the EGP. The ongoing implementation of an IMF loan agreement to facilitate a more flexible exchange rate system further underscores efforts to stabilize the Egyptian economy.

Overall, while the USD appears to be in a temporary strengthening phase, the fundamental improvements in Egypt's economic indicators suggest that the EGP may have the resilience needed to weather these fluctuations. Market participants should remain vigilant to the evolving economic landscape, which will determine future exchange rate movements between the USD and EGP.
