Forex Forecast for February 2026
Currency Markets Face Shifting Central Bank Strategies
As January 2026 draws to a close, foreign exchange markets are anticipating ongoing softness in the U.S. dollar, driven by diverging central bank actions and evolving technical signals. Since September 2024, the Federal Reserve has implemented a total reduction of 175 basis points, leaving policymakers at a pivotal juncture. Meanwhile, the European Central Bank has wrapped up its rate-cutting phase, and the Bank of Japan is preparing for its first significant policy tightening in many years. These developments have contributed to a weaker dollar, a trend that is expected to persist as U.S. economic growth decelerates and market sentiment wanes.
