Morning Juice – US Session Prep (28th January)

Sentiment
A gauge of the dollar rebounded from its lowest level in nearly four years ahead of the Federal Reserve decision, with interest rates expected to remain on hold. Treasuries were little changed.

Gold surged to a record above $5,280 an ounce, extending a rapid rally driven by US dollar weakness and a flight from sovereign bonds and currencies.
