Dollar index rises 1.1% this week to 103.423

A 1.1% weekly gain in the dollar is a meaningful move for a gauge that typically grinds in small increments, and the wide intraweek range points to genuine two-way volatility rather than a quiet drift. The read-across matters most for dollar-denominated assets, including tokenized treasuries and other RWA instruments whose yields and relative appeal shift with the currency. Whether the index holds above the bottom of this week's range, or gives back the gain, is the open question worth tracking.
