- Thinks that the dollar is near its cycle peak
- US Q1 GDP report was a case of ‘buy the rumour, sell the fact’
- Says that the report was by no means convincing
- PCE data later should show more moderation in inflation
- That will put the spotlight on the Fed i.e. will they take steps towards a rate cut?
- There are signs that global economy is recovering
