Dollar Surges to Three-Month High Amid Global Price Pressures
The US dollar reached a three-month high on Thursday, driven by rising US Treasury yields and concerns over persistent global price pressures stemming from the US-Israeli war on Iran.
Data showing that US inflation rose less than expected in August, along with downward revisions to July's reading, reduced expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike this month.
The euro fell 0.11% against the dollar to $1.1317 in Asia, its largest loss since July 2025, as Europe's debt and energy worries weighed on the currency.
