Key Quotes:
"Even though the US has a smaller merchandise trade/GDP ratio than most other major economies, references to the USD’s strength in the October FOMC meeting and a speech by Fed Vice-Chair Fischer last week explaining the impact of USD strength on US exports and inflation gives credence to the view that USD strength could slow the pace of Fed policy actions.
Unless US inflation spikes higher the Fed could attempt to moderate USD appreciation In turn this could translate to an increased effort by some other central banks including the ECB to stimulate their economies. We target a move to EUR/USD1.05 on a 3 mth view."
