] that would be dollar bearish, adds Karen Finerman.
However, there's also a case to be made for dollar bulls; higher interest rates may be on the horizon. That belief was reinforced Tuesday by Charles Plosser, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and a voting member of the Fed's Open Market Committee, who said the Fed will probably need to boost interest rates "sooner rather than later," even if employment and financial conditions haven't improved.
"Inflation is already too high and inconsistent with our goal of — and responsibility to ensure — price stability," Plosser said in a speech to a group assembled by the Philadelphia Business Journal.
A reversal on interest rates "will likely need to begin before either the labor market or the financial markets have completely turned around," he said.
