Yesterday Recap

The USD saw its largest daily gain since 6th November, bolstered by stronger-than-expected ISM manufacturing PMI figures, including a surprising return to expansion in new orders. The dollar's momentum was further fuelled by Trump’s warning of 100% tariffs on BRICS countries. Meanwhile, French politics remained tense as Marine Le Pen’s party vowed to support a no-confidence motion against the government following Michel Barnier's push for the budget, driving GBPEUR to a fresh 2024 high.
