The DXY dollar index remained at 101.55 points amid a massive sell-off in the American stock market. According to Reuters, the victory of the Democratic Party in the congressional elections triggered an outflow of capital from investors to defensive assets. As a result, the Japanese yen strengthened by 0.2% to 157.40 per dollar, and the yield on the 10-year US Treasury note fell to 4.84%. Against this background, market participants changed their expectations for Fed policy: the probability of an interest rate hike in December dropped from more than 80% to 70%.
