what happened
The dollar is recovering as US Treasury yields climb and oil rises on concerns that Middle East conflict could disrupt supply. Safe-haven demand and a weaker euro, weighed down by worries about French debt, are also supporting the greenback. On Tuesday the dollar fell to a near three-week low against a basket of currencies after weak US housing data. Danske Bank's Jens Naervig Pedersen says rumors of progress in US-Iran talks briefly lowered energy prices, but the move faded overnight. The DXY index is up 0.1% at 101.778 after dipping to 101.506 on Tuesday. Source: Market Talk.
why it matters
The combination of a firmer dollar, higher yields and costlier oil matters for currency and bond markets, adding pressure on the euro and sterling and on emerging-market currencies such as the Philippine peso, which hit a record intraday low.
