The index advanced markedly in Asia-Pacific morning trade, accelerating around 10:00 Beijing time and hitting its session high at 12:05 before holding near the top for most of the day. The Bloomberg Dollar Index gained 0.06% to 1222.91.
Dollar Index Climbs 0.23% to 102.164 After US Jobs Data
The dollar's advance came in the session after the payrolls print, not on the release itself, which suggests the market spent the intervening hours repricing rather than reacting reflexively. The intraday shape is the more telling detail: a morning surge that peaked just after midday in Beijing and then held, rather than fading, points to persistent demand through the Asia-Pacific window. Whether that resilience carries into the next session, or proves to be a one-day positioning adjustment, is the open question.
