DXYThe Dollar Index (DXY) measures the value of the U.S. dollar relative to a basket of six major foreign currencies: the euro, Japanese yen, British pound, Canadian dollar, Swedish krona, and Swiss franc. It provides a comprehensive gauge of the dollar’s strength in global markets and is widely used by traders, investors, and policymakers. A rising DXY indicates a stronger dollar, often reflecting investor confidence in the U.S. economy, while a declining index suggests a weakening dollar. The index is closely watched for its impact on commodities, trade balances, and global financial markets.
