Amid a stabilizing geopolitical backdrop, the US Dollar Index (DXY) climbed to 99.29 as the truce between the United States and Iran remained intact for over eight weeks. This prolonged stability has effectively reduced the geopolitical risk premium, allowing the dollar to firm based on yield differentials. In the FX markets, EUR/USD successfully defended support at 1.1649, while GBP/USD advanced to 1.3475 amid renewed buyer interest.
This upward momentum for the greenback occurs alongside mixed global economic signals; per market data, the US Core PCE Price Index rose 0.2% month-over-month in May 2026, slightly below the 0.3% forecast. Meanwhile, economic sentiment in the Eurozone improved to 93.5, exceeding the expected 92.8, which provided a technical floor for the Euro against the broader dollar strength seen in recent sessions.
