The USD to IDR exchange rate has recently displayed notable volatility, largely fueled by mixed signals from US economic data and the looming uncertainty of the US presidential election. As reported, the US dollar experienced fluctuation with stronger-than-expected ADP payroll figures initially providing an upward push, followed by an unexpected slowdown in third-quarter GDP that brought it back down. FX analysts suggest that the core PCE price index, which is set to be released soon, will play a critical role in determining the USD’s trajectory.
