Morning, Traders!
It is Wednesday the 6th of September, here is what to look out for today.

Sentiment
This morning, the dollar index held steady, clinging to Tuesday's 0.7% gain, after OPEC+ leaders reignited inflation fears by extending supply cuts through the end of the year.
With the yen and yuan facing a headwind from renewed dollar strength, authorities in Japan and China increased support for their currencies. Treasuries changed little.

According to analysts, the US economy has been performing so well recently that Federal Reserve officials will almost certainly need to double their projection for growth in 2023 when they release an updated outlook later this month.
