Global FX: Tariff purgatory and other things FX

US trade/ tariffs will be a multi-quarter theme and support for USD.  Our bias remains long USD given its growth and yield advantage, but the trading approach needs to be more tactical. A (short) window has opened up for carry/ high beta recovery. Carry still favours the dollar but several high beta have started to screen more attractive. Funders, particularly CHF, will be vulnerable if DM yields stay elevated.  DM central banks next week but most ex-Fed not meaningful for FX.
