# Trump, Vance campaign collides with US dollar's bull run | S&P Global

> The US dollar index has fallen about 2% since late June after a long rally, and Trump and Vance have criticized a strong dollar. Analysts say the candidates' plans to weaken the dollar are hard to execute and could instead support the currency through uncertainty-driven demand. Tariff and fiscal plans could also raise inflation.

## Why it matters

Expectations of a policy-driven weaker dollar could support dollar-denominated commodity prices, but analysts doubt it can be engineered and see tariff risk to trade flows. The impact on feed markets is speculative for now.
