The Impact of the Inflation on the Performance of the US Dollar
Inflation is one of the key macroeconomic forces shaping financial markets, influencing asset prices across the board. In our previous analysis, we examined how gold and Treasury prices react to changes in the inflation rate, uncovering patterns that suggested inflation dynamics also impact the US dollar. In this follow-up, we shift our focus entirely to the dollar, analyzing how it responds to both accelerating and decelerating inflation. As the world’s reserve currency, the dollar’s movements have far-reaching implications, affecting global trade, monetary policy, and asset allocation. Our goal is to determine whether inflation serves as a clear driver of dollar performance and, if so, in what ways.
