# Dollar higher as traders ramp up rate hike bets

> The dollar was on track for its strongest weekly gain in two months, holding near a 19-month high as traders raised bets on a larger Federal Reserve rate hike next month. Two-year Treasury yields rose about 32 basis points this week to around 4.84%, and the euro hit its lowest level against the dollar since April 2025 near USD1.103. The yen hovered around 160 per dollar, with traders watching for possible Japanese intervention.

## Why it matters

A stronger dollar and higher US yields tend to weigh on dollar-denominated commodity prices and make US exports less competitive abroad, while a weaker yen and euro raise the local cost of imported feed. Currency moves of this size can shift buying patterns for grains, oilseeds and meals.
