BofA: Trump doesn't want to see strengthening of the dollar. Risk-return on long positions in US dollars will decrease with increasing volatility after the inauguration of Donald Trump on Friday, analysts from BofA say.
They do not doubt that Trump doesen't want to see strengthening of the dollar, thus they do not expect a more hawkish tone in the leadership of the Federal Reserve.
