The dollar headed for its ninth straight decline on Wednesday as traders ramped up bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts following US economic data and growing expectations for a more dovish central bank.

Fed Governor Christopher Waller said last week the labour market is weak enough to justify another quarter-point rate cut in December, while White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett emerged as the frontrunner to become the next Fed chair. US President Donald Trump said he would be announcing his pick as Fed chair early in 2026.

"Such an announcement, if it occurs this early, will create a 'shadow Fed chair' since current Fed Chair Powell's term does not end until May," said Kristina Hooper, chief market strategist at Man Group.
