Dollar Rises on US Troop Deployment Reports Amid Middle East Tensions
March 25, 2026, 3:35 AM EDT. The dollar index gained 0.42% on Tuesday, driven by rising safe-haven demand amid escalating tensions in the Middle East. Reports indicate the U.S. plans to deploy 3,000 troops to the region, signaling a potential escalation in conflict involving Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Crude oil surged 4%, threatening inflation and supporting expectations of tighter Federal Reserve policy. US manufacturing data surprised on the upside, further underpinning the dollar. Conversely, the euro fell 0.20%, pressured by higher energy costs and a stronger dollar despite positive Eurozone manufacturing PMI data. The Japanese yen also weakened, weighed down by negative CPI news. Market focus remains on the Federal Open Market Committee's upcoming meeting, where a rate hike is increasingly discounted amid geopolitical risks.
