The Dollar Spot Index rose 0.57% to 90.879 in the week ending February 26 as reinflation fears drove demand for the greenback. Commodity currencies and equities fell, and U.S. data showed jobless claims falling to 730k and a 4Q GDP upward revision to 4.1%.
Reinflation fears and a stronger dollar pressure dollar-priced commodities and commodity currencies. Stronger U.S. growth data supports the case for firm U.S. demand for feed inputs.
After 2,356 past bullish macro events, US Dollar (Broad) moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (60% higher; middle half -0.3% to +0.7%), and +0.4% over 20.
