Sign InThe US Dollar extended its gains against major currencies, with a particular focus on the weakening EUR/USD pair. A sharp surge in oil prices has emerged as a new primary driver for Greenback strength against the Euro, adding to the downward pressure on the single currency. The EUR/USD pair broke through key lower technical levels, a move specifically attributed by analysts to the 'war premium' stemming from escalating geopolitical tensions. Meanwhile, the AUD/USD pair remained under pressure as investors reacted to intensifying Middle East rhetoric and robust US economic indicators. This combination of rising energy costs and geopolitical risks has intensified risk-off sentiment, weighing heavily on risk-sensitive currencies. The resilience of the US economy continues to provide a solid floor for the Dollar as markets monitor the evolving landscape.
