  • Dollar Strengthens Amid Iran Conflict Fears and U.S. Economic Data
    April 4, 2026, 12:46 PM EDT. The U.S. dollar index rose 0.36% on Thursday, driven by safe-haven demand amid escalating tensions in Iran following comments from President Trump. Stronger-than-expected U.S. economic data, including a drop in weekly jobless claims and a narrower February trade deficit, added to dollar gains. Meanwhile, the euro and yen weakened against the dollar, pressured by rising crude oil prices which reached a 3.5-week high, exacerbating concerns for energy-importing economies. Market swaps show mixed expectations for central bank rate moves later in April. Precious metals, including gold and silver, fell sharply pressured by the strong dollar and fears that the Iran conflict could boost inflation, potentially leading central banks to tighten policy.
