Welcome, traders, to this week’s FXGlobe.com market review<\/strong>. Last week served as a rollercoaster for many assets, setting the stage for potentially more volatility and opportunities<\/a> in the coming days. Let’s dive right in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Market Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The USD faced some resistance this week, unlike other major currencies<\/a>. Meanwhile, precious metals like Gold and Silver enjoyed a revival. Even global indices, after a period of pullback, have found their bullish stride again. Cryptocurrencies were the exception, showing no notable gains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Look Back at Last Week’s Economic Data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The economic data from last week kept traders on their toes. U.S. Consumer Confidence landed at 106.1, defying expectations. The U.S. job market<\/a> seemed stable, with Non-Farm Employment<\/a> Change and Unemployment Rates mostly in line with projections. On the downside, the S&P\/CS Composite-20 HPI year-over-year showed a decline, coming in at -1.2%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Charts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This week brought a surprising setback for the US Dollar, until the Friday after NFP, and then resulted in a very strong finish for the Dollar against the major currencies. Metals & Crudes did very well, while cryptocurrencies struggled to maintain their footing. The most exciting news comes from the world of global indices, which, after a period of consolidation, are trending bullish<\/a> again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
