US Dollar Index bias flipped 30 times to neutral on July 28, 2026
The US Dollar Index holds firm, supported by safe-haven demand amid geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, as well as diverging monetary policy expectations that weigh on currencies like the Swiss franc. The greenback's strength also pressures the New Zealand Dollar and keeps GBP/USD subdued ahead of central bank decisions.
