# Dollar hits 17-month high versus euro as bond selloff lifts yields

> The dollar rose to a 17-month high against the euro as a US and European bond selloff pushed Treasury yields to new peaks amid higher oil prices. The euro fell below $1.123 for the first time since May 2025 and declined about 2.5% in September. The 10-year Treasury yield reached its highest since 2002.

## Why it matters

Rising US yields and a stronger dollar typically weigh on dollar-priced feed commodities and raise the cost of imports for non-US buyers. Higher oil prices also lift input and freight costs.
