DoubleLine Views on the US Dollar

DoubleLine believes the U.S. dollar peaked in September 2022. We would view any near-term strength in the dollar as an entry point to add to a short dollar position via emerging markets (EM) hard currency, EM local currency, non-dollar developed markets bonds or foreign exchange forwards. DoubleLine maintains the view that the dollar will decline over the medium term. Factors that could lead to DoubleLine’s base case of dollar weakness include: a large current account and trade deficit, high hedging costs for international investors, net international investment position, potential easing by the Federal Reserve, the U.S. fiscal deficit and cheaper international valuations.
