# Hawkish Fed Speak Lifts Bond Yields and the Dollar

> The dollar index rose to a new 1.5-year high on Friday as the 10-year Treasury yield climbed to a 4-week high of 5.172%. Several Fed presidents said they favored further tightening, and markets priced in a 100% chance of a 25 bp hike at the December 8-9 FOMC meeting.

## Why it matters

A stronger dollar and higher US yields make dollar-priced commodities more expensive for importers and tighten financing for buyers, which generally pressures dollar-denominated grain and oilseed prices. The euro also fell to a 1.5-year low, adding to the pressure on EU-priced demand.
