US Dollar Index bias flipped 19 times to neutral on October 6, 2026
The US Dollar Index is holding above 102.00 near 102.30, described as an 18-month high, supported by firm bond yields and steady Fed pricing. The move is also linked to safe-haven flows amid geopolitical risks and to euro repricing around fiscal woes. Attention is turning to European PMIs and upcoming Fedspeak for further context.
