The U.S. dollar index climbed 0.32% in the latest trading session, closing at 98.579 during the final hours of the forex market. This upward movement highlights sustained global investor confidence in the greenback.
Key Drivers Behind the Rally
The surge was fueled by a combination of strong economic indicators and shifting expectations around central bank policy.
- Better-than-expected labor market data
- Persistent inflationary pressures
- Rising global risk aversion
These elements collectively boosted demand for dollar-denominated assets. Analysts suggest a sustained break above 98.5 could pave the way for further gains.
