The article notes that the dollar is strong as US second-quarter GDP grew at a 4.2% annualised rate and the Fed raised rates to 2% to 2.25%, its third hike this year. Analysts forecast three more hikes in 2019 and one in 2020, which would lift rates above 3%.
Global investor inflows into the US could push the dollar higher if the Fed follows through.
Continued Fed tightening and capital inflows would keep the dollar firm, raising the cost of dollar-priced feed imports for buyers abroad and pressuring US commodity values. Expected further hikes are the main driver.
