United States Dollar - Summary

The dollar index climbed to above 101.2 on Monday, remaining near two-month highs as rising oil prices strengthened expectations for further Federal Reserve tightening to contain inflation and increased safe-haven demand for the greenback. Oil prices advanced after President Donald Trump rejected Iran’s latest proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, while Tehran said it would not ease its conditions for reopening the vital waterway. On the monetary policy front, several Fed officials last week cited resilient economic growth and a strong labor market as reasons additional rate hikes could be necessary. Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack said these factors, alongside concerns over government debt, are contributing to higher long-term Treasury yields. Investors now await the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge and key US employment data this week for additional clues on the outlook for monetary policy.

Dollar Rises as Oil Gains
The dollar index climbed to above 101.2 on Monday, remaining near two-month highs as rising oil prices strengthened expectations for further Federal Reserve tightening to contain inflation and increased safe-haven demand for the greenback.

Dollar Rally Pauses on Friday
The dollar index fell below 101 on Friday, pausing a five-session rally that had taken the greenback to July highs. A modest decline in oil prices, amid signs that US and Iranian negotiators may be exploring a phased agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, provided some relief to investors concerned about inflationary pressures. Nevertheless, the dollar gained around 1% on the week, marking a second consecutive week of gains. The move was supported by expectations of further monetary policy tightening by the Fed, continued uncertainty in the Middle East, the sequential rise in oil prices, and resilient US economic activity. The greenback was mostly lower against the yen on Friday after Japanese authorities said Tokyo and Washington remain committed to the stance underpinning July’s joint interventions. Finance Minister Katayama also said that President Trump had expressed concerns about the yen during a meeting with Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi earlier this week.

Dollar Set for Second Weekly Gain
The dollar index held above 101 on Friday after rising for four straight sessions, trading at its strongest levels in nearly two months and on track to advance for the second consecutive week. The greenback strengthened as elevated oil prices and robust US economic data stoked inflation concerns, reinforcing expectations that the Fed may tighten policy further. Markets are currently pricing in roughly a 67% probability of a Fed rate hike in October, following last week's increase. New York Fed's John Williams said the central bank still has a lot of work to do to bring inflation under control, while Philadelphia Fed's Anna Paulson said some modest additional policy tightening could be warranted. On the data front, US weekly initial jobless claims unexpectedly fell by 1,000 to a two-month low of 197,000, pointing to continued labor-market resilience. Investors now await consumer sentiment and durable goods data on Friday for further clues about the economy.
