TREE NEWS reports: The ICE US Dollar Index rose 0.37% to 102.586 in late New York trading on Monday, October 12, its highest level since April last year. The index traded between 102.100 and 102.604 on the day, recovering from a marginal early-Asia low to approach its April 10, 2025 intraday peak of 103.027. The Bloomberg Dollar Index gained 0.11% to 1,227.33.
Dollar Index Climbs 0.4% to Highest Since Last April
The move is notable less for its size than for its timing: the dollar is pressing back toward levels last seen in April, a range that has capped rallies for months. For crypto and dollar-denominated RWA markets, a firmer greenback typically tightens the global liquidity backdrop that supports risk assets, making this a headwind worth monitoring. Whether the index can clear and hold the April peak, or stalls again at that ceiling, is the open question.
