Dollar Index Rises 0.26% to 99.070 After ECB Rate Decision

The dollar's climb around the ECB decision suggests the euro was the main transmission channel rather than any fresh US catalyst, since the move began at the European open and peaked right after the announcement. That matters for dollar-sensitive trades across crypto and tokenized real-world assets, where a firmer greenback typically tightens the backdrop. The open question is whether the index holds above the prior low or fades back toward it, since the intraday reversal off the high shows the bid was not one-way.
