Weekly market context
The covered week was shaped by a softer US dollar and renewed strength in higher-beta currencies. NZD/USD, AUD/USD and GBP/USD moved higher while several crosses showed that the story extended beyond a simple dollar decline.
What the crosses added
Cross-currency pairs can help identify which side of the market is driving a move. When the same currency appears repeatedly across the stronger or weaker side of a weekly board, it can indicate broader relative demand rather than a single-pair development.
Drivers traders were watching
Changes in US labour-market expectations
Federal Reserve rate-path repricing
Risk appetite and demand for higher-beta currencies

What came next
The next question was whether the recovery could hold as liquidity normalised and new macro information arrived. Weekly recaps describe a completed period; they do not predict the next move, and the relationships described can weaken or reverse.
