REVEALED: Dollar slightly lower as stocks move higher | Vintage Vibes

The dollar index (DXY00) on Monday fell by -0.10% as mostly higher equity prices Monday curbed liquidity demand for the dollar.  However, losses in the dollar were limited after the 10-year T-note yield climbed to a nearly 16-year high, strengthening the dollar’s interest rate differentials.  Also, weakness in the yen was positive for the dollar as the yen nearly matched last Thursday’s 9-1/2 month low against the dollar.

EUR/USD (^EURUSD) on Monday rose by +0.23%.  Dollar weakness Monday was supportive of the euro.  Also, higher European government bond yields were bullish for EUR/USD.  Gains in the euro were limited after Monday’s monthly report from the Bundesbank said the German economy “continues to be in a weak phase.”  Also, Monday’s news that showed German producer prices in July fell by the most in 13 years was dovish for ECB policy and bearish for the euro.
