Breathing space Lower U.S. rates could give emerging market central banks more room for manoeuvre to ease themselves and support domestic growth. “We could see more idiosyncratic actions among central banks on the back of that.” Strong dollar reprieve Those economies hoping U.S. rate cuts will weaken the robust dollar further, lifting their currencies, may be disappointed. “High rates have been a critical headwind to base metals, driving a significant negative physical demand distortion from destocking and weighing on capital intensive end-demand segments,” said MUFG’s Ehsan Khoman.
