The US Dollar is up today, January 30, 2026, following Kevin Warsh’s nomination as Federal Reserve Chair, signaling potentially higher interest rates. Metals like gold and silver have dropped sharply, losing ten percent from earlier peaks due to the Dollar’s rally. The Canadian Dollar weakened after data suggested a 0.5 percent economic contraction in Q4 2025, while the Japanese Yen struggled, marking its second loss in three days, despite Japan’s minimal intervention. Key economic data on Factory Orders and Durable Goods Orders is expected later today.
