- The Fed's July meeting minutes and Powell's speech this week will drive currency markets, alongside inflation data from Canada and Japan, and PMI readings from the US, Eurozone, and UK.
- Analysts anticipate a potential further decline in the dollar against the yen due to rate differentials and expectations of rate cuts by the Fed, with the dollar hitting seven-month lows against a basket of currencies.
