28 de maio (Reuters) - O dólar americano caiu em relação às principais moedas na quinta-feira após um relatório da Axios informar que os EUA e o Irã chegaram a um acordo para estender seu cessar-fogo, embora vários relatórios semelhantes ao longo dos três meses de conflito não tenham resultado no fim da guerra.
O dólar tem oscilado nas últimas semanas, em linha com a perspectiva em mudança do conflito no Oriente Médio, ganhando quando os mercados esperam uma postura prolongada e caindo quando os relatórios sinalizam uma mudança em direção à desescalada.
A Axios informou, citando dois funcionários dos EUA, que Washington e Teerã concordaram em um memorando de entendimento de 60 dias que estenderia o cessar-fogo e iniciaria negociações sobre o programa nuclear do Irã, pendente de aprovação do presidente dos EUA, Donald Trump.
A Reuters não verificou de forma independente esse relatório. A Axios informou sobre acordos semelhantes em abril, em 6 de maio e em 23 de maio que não resultaram em um acordo duradouro para acabar com a guerra.
O euro ganhou 0,24% em relação ao dólar, para US$ 1,1652. Em relação ao franco suíço, o dólar enfraqueceu 0,34% para 0,784.
O índice do dólar, que mede o dólar em relação a uma cesta de moedas, incluindo o iene e o euro, caiu 0,3% para 99,02, colocando-o no caminho para interromper duas sessões de ganhos após a retomada das hostilidades entre os EUA e o Irã.
A inflação dos EUA aumentou no ritmo mais rápido em três anos em abril, impulsionada por preços mais altos da energia em meio à guerra com o Irã, sinalizando que o Federal Reserve pode manter as taxas de juros inalteradas por mais tempo.
O índice de preços de gastos de consumo pessoal (PCE) subiu 0,4% mês a mês em abril, após um aumento de 0,7% em março. No entanto, a inflação do PCE central, que exclui os preços de alimentos e energia, aumentou 0,2% em abril em relação ao mês anterior, após avançar 0,3% em março.
O crescimento econômico dos EUA para o primeiro trimestre também foi revisado para baixo.
"A combinação do PCE central, que ficou um pouco mais baixo, e os dados de crescimento também ficando um pouco mais baixos envia a mensagem de que talvez o Fed possa ser um pouco menos agressivo com seu 'mais alto por mais tempo', o que é um tanto de suporte ao risco", disse Joel Kruger, estrategista de mercado do LMAX Group, com sede em Londres.
"Em última análise, até que possamos descobrir uma resolução do lado geopolítico e o que acontecerá com a inflação, é muito de apenas negociação turbulenta e sem direção."
EM OBSERVÂNCIA PARA INTERVENÇÃO DO IENE
Os investidores estão atentos para ver se os funcionários japoneses interviriam novamente para apoiar o iene, à medida que ele negocia perto do nível psicológico de 160 por dólar.
O iene japonês subiu 0,14% em relação ao dólar, para 159,27 por dólar.
Quatro modelos AI líderes discutem este artigo
"Markets are overreacting to another unverified report that has repeatedly failed to produce lasting de-escalation."
The dollar's 0.3% drop to 99.02 on the Axios ceasefire report follows a familiar pattern of fleeting de-escalation headlines that failed in April, May 6, and May 23. Core PCE at +0.2% m/m and Q1 growth revisions lower could support a less hawkish Fed, but April's 0.4% headline PCE was energy-driven and the deal still needs Trump approval. Yen at 159.27 keeps intervention risk live near 160. The move prices in lasting relief that prior reports never delivered, leaving USD vulnerable to quick reversal if negotiations stall again.
History of failed deals is already priced in, so any actual 60-day MOU could trigger a sharper, sustained dollar selloff as energy prices drop and Fed patience extends.
"The dollar's weakness is a Fed-cut-expectations trade disguised as a geopolitical de-escalation trade; the ceasefire is noise with a 75% probability of reversal within two weeks."
The article frames dollar weakness as a de-escalation trade, but the real story is inflation-driven Fed pivot risk masquerading as geopolitical relief. Core PCE softened to 0.2% MoM (from 0.3%), Q1 growth revised lower—this is classic stagflation setup where the Fed cuts despite headline inflation still elevated by energy. The dollar falls not because Iran peace is credible (Axios has cried wolf three times since April), but because markets are pricing in rate cuts. The yen at 159.27/USD suggests BOJ intervention risk is real, which could cap further dollar weakness. Watch whether this 'ceasefire' holds 48 hours; if it collapses again, the dollar reverses hard on safe-haven demand and inflation expectations reset higher.
The article explicitly notes Axios has failed three times already—why should this report move markets at all? If traders are sophisticated enough to dismiss the ceasefire as noise, then the dollar move is purely driven by softer core PCE and growth data, not geopolitical hope, which means the Fed-pivot thesis is the only real signal and geopolitical noise is irrelevant.
"The dollar's decline is a temporary reaction to headline risk that ignores the underlying inflationary pressure and the lack of a durable geopolitical resolution."
The market's knee-jerk reaction to this Axios report is a classic 'buy the rumor' trade on geopolitical de-escalation, but it ignores the structural reality of the U.S. dollar. While a 60-day ceasefire provides temporary relief for energy-driven inflation, it does nothing to address the fiscal deficit or the Federal Reserve's 'higher-for-longer' mandate. The dollar index (DXY) at 99.02 is failing to account for the fact that energy prices remain volatile and the U.S. growth revision is signaling stagflationary risks. I expect this move to be ephemeral; the dollar will find support as the market realizes that a memorandum of understanding without a long-term resolution to the nuclear program is merely a pause, not a pivot.
If the ceasefire leads to a sustained decline in crude oil prices, it could provide the Fed enough cover to pivot toward rate cuts, which would fundamentally undermine the dollar's yield advantage.
"Non-binding, short-term ceasefire signals are unlikely to anchor risk assets; a failed implementation or renewed energy-price shock would reverse the dollar's dip quickly."
Initial read: USD slips on Axios's unverified claim of a 60-day ceasefire extension with Iran. The report is not corroborated by Reuters, and past hopeful announcements have fizzled, so the move may reflect a risk-on relief rather than a durable de-escalation. In the backdrop, softer core PCE and slower growth open room for the Fed to pause or delay hawkish tightening, supporting risk assets and the euro in the near term. Yet the deal would be non-binding, with enforcement uncertain and geopolitical risk still elevated; any stumble or energy-price spike could snap risk assets lower and push the dollar higher again. Position sizing should reflect that asymmetry.
Even if the ceasefire extension holds, it could invite risk of a more aggressive U.S. stance if talks stall or sanctions regimes shift, which would quickly lift financial conditions and strengthen the dollar.
"Energy relief from a real ceasefire plus soft PCE could drive deeper Fed cuts than stagflation risks imply."
Claude's stagflation framing ignores how the 0.2% core PCE print lines up with energy relief if the 60-day MOU actually curbs Iranian exports. That combo could accelerate Fed cut pricing beyond what growth revisions alone justify, outweighing yen intervention risk at 159.27. The real gap is whether markets have fully discounted the probability that any deal unravels within weeks, resetting both inflation and safe-haven bids.
"Energy relief from a ceasefire memo is structural fantasy; the downside tail risk of deal collapse resetting inflation expectations is being ignored."
Grok assumes energy relief from a 60-day MOU is automatic, but Iran's export capacity doesn't flip on a memo—sanctions enforcement, tanker logistics, and Chinese demand matter more. Even if crude drops 5%, that's ~0.1% CPI relief, not enough to justify aggressive Fed cut pricing without sustained growth weakness. The real risk: markets are front-running a deal that collapses by week three, leaving inflation expectations re-anchored higher and the dollar vulnerable to a sharp reversal. That asymmetry hasn't been priced.
"Structural U.S. fiscal deficits will override transitory energy price relief, keeping the dollar supported regardless of the ceasefire."
Claude and Grok are obsessing over the ceasefire's impact on energy, but they're ignoring the fiscal impulse. The U.S. Treasury's Q3 borrowing estimates are the real anchor for the DXY. Even if energy prices soften by 5%, the structural deficit ensures long-end yields remain elevated. The market isn't pricing in a 'Fed pivot'—it's pricing in a liquidity trap where the Fed is forced to keep rates high to fund the deficit, regardless of cooling PCE prints.
"Policy regime and fiscal liquidity risks dwarf a temporary energy-driven relief in determining the dollar's trajectory."
Claude, your stagflation framing hinges on oil relief feeding Fed cuts. I view a 60-day MOU as credible only if sanctions enforcement and demand signals confirm it; otherwise services inflation and wage growth keep real rates high, supporting the dollar. The overlooked risk is policy regime uncertainty tied to deficits and cross-asset liquidity. Until that path clears, upside for the dollar remains intact even if energy temporarily weakens.
