Dollar Index Slips 0.35%, Trading Near 97.94 as Major Currencies Show Mixed Performance
According to Golden Ten Data, the US Dollar Index experienced a pullback of 0.35% during late trading on December 23, settling at 97.942. This index, which tracks the dollar’s performance against six major currencies, reflects ongoing volatility in the foreign exchange markets.
The currency pair movements paint a mixed picture across global markets. The euro strengthened on the day, with 1 EUR now commanding 1.179 USD compared to 1.1755 USD in the previous session. Similarly, sterling gained ground, trading at 1.3497 USD versus the prior close of 1.3458 USD.
Meanwhile, safe-haven and commodity-linked currencies moved in the opposite direction. The Japanese yen appreciated against the dollar, with USD/JPY trading at 156.2 yen, down from 156.92 yen the previous day. The Swiss franc also advanced, settling at 0.7877 CHF per dollar, compared to 0.7918 CHF previously. Both the Canadian dollar and Swedish krona followed suit, with USD/CAD declining to 1.3694 from 1.3747, and USD/SEK falling to 9.1684 from 9.2396.
The 0.35% decline in the Dollar Index suggests a period of weakness for the greenback, as investors rotate toward other major currencies amid shifting economic expectations and market sentiment.
