The US dollar rally may have further to run

The US dollar is ending the week stronger against most currencies, although it has fallen back a little this afternoon despite the stronger-than-expected non-farm payrolls report. While that reaction is perhaps a bit puzzling, the bigger picture is that the greenback has extended its post-FOMC rally against the other major currencies this week. We expect it to make further headway, provided that US data continue to come in strong.
