Bias
bearish-to-range-bound, current below the 90-day average and in the lower half of the 3-month range, suggesting limited downside with potential for a mid-range test.
Key drivers
- Rate gap: The Fed is expected to ease toward neutral in 2026, while CBS drains excess liquidity and tightens credit conditions.
- Risk/commodities: Global risk appetite remains modest and commodity prices are stable, supporting steady flows into WST.
- Macro factor: US payrolls and unemployment data will guide Fed easing expectations and the USD; firmer prints could keep the dollar firm, softer prints could ease it.
Range
Likely to drift within the recent three-month band, near the lower end with possible move toward the middle, and only a test of the lower boundary if US data surprises on the downside.
What could change it
- Upside risk: stronger US payrolls or hawkish Fed signals could push USD higher, widening the gap with WST.
- Downside risk: softer US payrolls data or clearer easing signals could weaken the USD, supporting a gradual WST appreciation
