  • Dollar Rises on Iran War Concerns and Higher Yields; Euro and Yen Weaken
    March 21, 2026, 9:25 AM EDT. The dollar index rose 0.42% amid safe-haven demand linked to the ongoing war in Iran and higher U.S. Treasury yields. Fed Chair Powell reiterated that rate cuts hinge on inflation progress, supporting expectations of policy tightening. The euro weakened 0.31% due to a strong dollar, a sharp fall in German producer prices, and surging oil prices, which pressure energy-importing Europe. ECB officials hinted at possible rate hikes next month with an 80% probability priced in by markets. The yen dropped 1.02% amid the strong dollar, rising U.S. yields, and climbing oil prices, despite lower trading volumes due to Japan's holiday. Gold and silver fell sharply as higher yields and hawkish central bank sentiment amid rising energy costs diminished precious metals' appeal.
