US Dollar Index news for September 25, 2026
The US Dollar Index has climbed to around 101.80, marking a two-month high and a second week of gains above 101.00, as rallying US bond yields and Federal Reserve officials signaling support for further hikes have underpinned the move. The strength in the dollar has coincided with broad currency weakness elsewhere, including Asian currencies with the yen near 160, the euro near three-month lows amid high oil prices and Fed hike bets, and a four-day slide in the British pound. Attention is also on upcoming U.S. labor data with weekly Initial Jobless Claims ahead.
