Why Business Confidence matters for USD
Business investment drives productivity and potential output. Confidence surveys lead actual capital spending by several months, giving an early read on whether the United States economy is likely to accelerate or slow.
How to read it
Above-consensus business confidence is usd-supportive as it implies planned investment and hiring that will sustain growth. Deteriorating confidence raises the prospect of a capex and hiring pullback, which is dovish.
