Dollar Soars to 2-1/2-Month Peak as US Rates, Election Eyed

Live Mint  

The US dollar has been on a strong upward trajectory in recent weeks, driven by positive economic data and expectations of a Fed pause in interest rate cuts. The greenback has reached a 2-1/2-month high, with the market pricing in an 89.6% chance for a 25 basis point cut at the Fed's upcoming meeting. However, the dollar's rise is also influenced by the upcoming US presidential election, with market expectations for a Republican victory potentially leading to inflationary policies like tariffs.
