The dollar rises ahead of the release of the US Federal Reserve meeting results!

The US dollar index saw a slight increase during trading on Tuesday, as the markets await the results of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy committee meeting, which is scheduled to be released shortly. These results may be crucial in determining the direction of the dollar in upcoming trades.

Here’s an overview of the main factors influencing dollar movements:

US bond yields support the rise of the dollar:

The US dollar clearly benefited from the rise in bond yields across various maturities, as the yield on 10-year Treasury bonds increased by 1.36% to reach 4.323%. In addition, the yield on 20-year bonds recorded a decrease of 1.03%, reaching 4.582%. Furthermore, the yield on 30-year bonds rose by 0.95%, settling at 4.489%. This rise in US bond yields has contributed to supporting the dollar's movements during trading.

The dollar benefits from expectations of a US interest rate cut!

Alongside the rise in bond yields, the performance of the US dollar was bolstered by growing market expectations that the Federal Reserve may only cut interest rates by about 25 basis points during its upcoming meeting. Currently, estimates suggest a likelihood of a 25 basis point rate cut at 56.2%, while the chances of keeping the rate unchanged are estimated at 43.8%. These expectations have cast a positive shadow on the dollar's movement.

The dollar awaits the results of the Federal Reserve's meeting:

As the results of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy meeting approach, the market's anticipation increases. These results are expected to provide deeper insights into the rationale behind the recent interest rate decision, alongside offering signals regarding the future of monetary policies. Any hints from the Fed could significantly impact the performance of the US dollar in the short term, especially amid current economic challenges.

The impact of these developments on the US dollar index:

In light of these combined factors, the US dollar index rose by 0.28%, settling at 107.12 points. The market is awaiting the results of the Fed's meeting to look for a clear direction in trading.
