US Dollar Index bias flipped 24 times to neutral on August 10, 2026
The US Dollar Index is advancing above 99.50, supported by safe-haven demand from Middle East risks and rising risk aversion. However, softer labour data has shifted Federal Reserve outlook, pausing a post-NFP selloff. While some experts suggest the dollar rally might have come to an end, the index remains firm as oil surges on Hormuz.
