US Dollar (USD) fell on softer than expected CPI. This puts focus on PPI data tonight (8:30pm) before the lead up to FOMC next week. DXY was last at 98.40 levels, OCBC's FX analysts Frances Cheung and Christopher Wong note.

Daily momentum is not showing a clear bias

"In the event of a higher print, we may well see the overnight move reverse. But further downside data surprise (which cannot be ruled out given that the last PPI print was negative) may see DXY break below 2025 low."

"Daily momentum is not showing a clear bias while RSI fell. Support at 97.90 (2025 low). Resistance at 99.40 (21 DMA), 99.90 levels (50 DMA)."
