Decisão da FOMC, Guerra do Comércio com o Brasil e bate em ganhos– Wrap de mercado para a sessão norte-americana - 30 de julho

[Ben Graham]

Log in to today's North American session recap for July 30, 2025.

Today's session was so full of action it is almost forgettable that Markets received reports for both Quarterly GDP figures and Private ADP Employment data.

With both beating expectations, the US Dollar got launched early in the NA session into its first daily buying wave.

US data from this morning, left = actual release ; middle = consensu ; right = previous, MarketPulse Economic Calendar

But Markets also saw promptly after the Bank of Canada Rate Decision, rates unchanged with markets not getting anything new from the 10:30 Macklem Speech.


European GDP data also came in stronger-than-expected but this hasn't stopped the Euro from getting battered, down another 1% against the US Dollar (Trading ~1.1426 – Past week highs were around 1.18)

The Federal Reserve holding their rates unchanged is also supporting the run higher in the Dollar – You can check out our news piece on the event.

Markets just received the news of Microsoft and Meta beating on their Earnings, sending Nasdaq Futures and CFDs flying right after the close.

The US and Brazil also saw another round of heated exchanges regarding the upcoming tariffs. Brazil will potentially cancel Oil shipments to the US and Trump throws another 40% extra tariff to goods arriving from Brazil.

Oil moved higher consequently, up another 1.50% today.
