Fed's Broad Dollar Index Was Nearly Flat in Late-October Readings

The Federal Reserve's broad dollar index was nearly flat in readings through October 23. A separate six-currency index fell 0.2% on October 30 but rose 0.3% over October.

WHY IT MATTERS

A flat broad dollar index signals no major shift in currency pressure on dollar-priced feed commodities. The impact on grain and meal prices is minimal.
