Dollar Climbs to 1.5-Week High on Robust US PPI Data and Rising Yields
May 13, 2026, 6:06 PM EDT. The U.S. dollar surged to a 1.5-week high following a stronger-than-expected April Producer Price Index (PPI) report. PPI rose 1.4% month-over-month and 6.0% year-over-year, the largest jump in over three years, fueling expectations of hawkish Federal Reserve policy. The dollar also gained safe-haven support amid concerns over a fragile US-Iran ceasefire after President Trump described it as on "life support." Additionally, the 10-year Treasury yield hit a 10-month high of 4.49%, boosting the dollar's interest rate advantage. European currencies weakened, with the euro pressured by dovish Eurozone data and rising unemployment. The Japanese yen fell amid weaker economic sentiment despite a surge in government bond yields. Precious metals edged higher due to Middle East geopolitical risks.
