USD: The FOMC's Brainard should give risk assets some breathing space

FX markets have stabilized overnight, assisted in part by comments from Lael Brainard of the Federal Open Market Committee, who reported that she has been paying close attention to recent moves in US Treasury yields. Since UST uncertainty is currently the biggest risk to risk assets and cyclical FX, these remarks should give higher beta FX some breathing space. In the United States, the priority is on February ISM Facilities. We expect a minor correction from the January reading, which should help risk assets stay stable.
