Traders have been on the fence for some time towards the greenback, however, it appears that a new price trend has formed, after the index closed above its 200-day moving average for the first-time since June 2020 this week.<\/p><p>Speaking to analysts, no clear consensus has been formed on the US dollar at the moment. Many market participants are not convinced about the ongoing breakout, so I thought it may be a good time to look at the bull and bear case for US dollar index.<\/p><p><strong>Fundamentals<\/strong><\/p><p>On the bull side for the fundamentals, we have the fact that the US economy is widely expected to outpace European, Japan, and the UK in terms of growth. Encouraging manufacturing data from the US is also painting a bullish picture for the United States economy in terms of growth.<\/p><p>The $1.9 trillion stimulus package is expected to be a boon for the US economy in the short-term, and a significant portion of the $1,400 stimulus checks will filter their way into the real economy.<\/p><p>One of the major arguments with the Federal Reserve\u2019s QE program is that it does not reach the real economy. Potentially, the direct stimulus checks will boost the real US economy, and drive demand for the greenback.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-07b268b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"07b268b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f8bb5ae\" data-id=\"f8bb5ae\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f68dee elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8f68dee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"317\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/CHART-1-9.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-5710\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2568fa3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2568fa3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e1cc1e6\" data-id=\"e1cc1e6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6319014 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6319014\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>On the bear side, the case of unprecedented fiscal spending is causing concerns about the United States debt to GDP ratio, and the fact that the purchasing power of the US dollar will be significantly weakened.<\/p><p>This is something that will probably come home to roost one-day, however, timing the expected decline and major market shift towards the US dollar currency will not be easy. The Bear case is strong and undeniable on this front and is certainly something that propelled the price of Bitcoin higher, and <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2ZsFzPL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gold<\/a> to a lesser degree over recent months.<\/p><p>Should we see the Biden administration announce an expected $3 trillion infrastructure and green spending bill, it may cause financial markets to have serious concerns about this unprecedented and unchecked spending from the US government.

Historical data clearly shows that the crowd has poor market timing, and often late in the game when moving in on market trends.<\/p><p>With this in mind, it could mean the US dollar is set to correct lower. It very much depends on the sentiment skew now. If the bullish sentiment towards the US dollar index starts to increase it would be a major red flag for me.<\/p><p>Overall, the bear case is strong on the sentiment front now and watch out for a sudden reversal if sentiment remains around current levels or increases.<\/p><p><strong>Technicals<\/strong><\/p><p>In terms of technicals a major shift has taken place over recent days. The bulls case looks solid for the greenback while bulls anchor price above the index\u2019s trend defining 200-day moving average, around the 92.50 region.<\/p><p>The fact that bulls are holding the daily candle above this area is a very good indication that further gains towards the 93.50 to 94.00 area seem likely over the medium-term horizon.
