The Federal Reserve's H.10 release for October 26 to 30 shows the dollar rose 0.27% against emerging-market currencies while falling about 0.17% against advanced economies. The broad trade-weighted dollar index moved only about 0.05%.
A stronger dollar against emerging-market currencies can squeeze importers in those markets and slow their purchases of feed ingredients, though the broad index barely moved, so the price effect is small.
