Dollar Holds Near 17-Month Peak

The dollar reached its highest level in 17 months, benefiting from a broad sell-off in the global bond market and rising borrowing costs. The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond hit its highest point since 2002 at 5.344% before retreating to 5.249%. These increases came alongside inflation concerns and rising oil prices, which supported the dollar index against the euro, nearing its lowest levels since May 2025. Meanwhile, the yen remained steady at 158 against the dollar after data showed accelerating inflation in Tokyo. Experts believe that the rise in bond yields is due to increased debt risks and the flight to safe assets, rather than a direct anticipation of higher interest rates. The market is closely awaiting the release of the U.S. jobs report to determine the future direction of monetary policy.
