US Dollar Index bias flipped 16 times to neutral on July 23, 2026
The US Dollar Index slipped toward 101.00 but continues to hold above its 100-day moving average, maintaining a positive technical tone. Support comes from rising bond yields and safe-haven demand after US Secretary of State Rubio warned that Iranian control of the Strait of Hormuz could have repercussions beyond the Middle East.
