Foreign capital boost and rising microfinance assets strengthen som outlook

Uzbekistan's announcement of 54 agreements and initiatives with the United States valued at approximately $12 billion in September 2026, focused on American equipment procurement and investment, expands access to foreign capital and technology, according to Timesca. This large-scale cooperation supports Uzbekistan’s external financial position and could influence future liquidity in the Uzbekistani som market. Additional reforms included the Ministry of Justice updating its regulatory sandbox for financial services to broaden participation, along with rapid growth in microfinance assets, which more than doubled to 20.8 trillion soums as of September 1, 2026, as reported by Uzdaily.

Momentum turns deeply bearish as sellers dominate below resistance

On the technical front, USD/UZS is trading below the MA-20 (UZS11,934) and MA-50 (UZS11,970) on the H1 chart, as well as under the MA-200 (UZS11,995) on the daily timeframe. The Ichimoku Kijun at UZS11,946 acts as immediate resistance. Momentum readings are bearish, with MACD and ADX both indicating sell setups. RSI stands at 30.95, deep in oversold territory, while Stoch RSI and CCI also remain oversold. Bull/Bear Power further confirms the dominance of sellers, although the Awesome Oscillator is currently neutral.

Sideways trade expected as bearish risks outweigh chances for rebound

Over the next 2–3 trading days, USD/UZS is expected to consolidate sideways, with a likely range of UZS11,851 to UZS11,970 as typical volatility. There is a 23% chance of an upward move, while a bearish extension is favored if support breaks. A bullish reversal would require a sustained break above the Ichimoku Kijun resistance level at UZS11,946.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees the USD/UZS pair under technical selling pressure as it remains below all key moving averages. He believes recent US-Uzbekistan agreements and financial reforms support long-term fundamentals but have yet to stabilize market sentiment. Momentum indicators are firmly bearish and oversold readings persist. "Until USD/UZS reclaims resistance at UZS11,946, I remain cautious on any upside attempts."

Earlier, analysts noted that downside risks had increased for USD/UZS, with long-term bearish pressure dominating the outlook despite intermittent buying interest. The current setup reinforces this negative bias, as sustained bearish momentum and oversold technical conditions signal that a decisive move below UZS11,851 support could trigger further weakness in the coming sessions.
