US Dollar Index bias flipped 19 times to neutral on October 7, 2026
The US Dollar Index has climbed back near its 18-month high and is holding above 102, supported by firm and recovering bond yields. US Treasury yields are in focus after hitting 24-year highs with the 10-year testing 5.35%, as traders await the September 15-16 FOMC Minutes with a Fed hike seen as the base case. Renewed pressure in Europe is also helping lift the greenback while the dollar stabilizes ahead of mid-tier data releases.
