  • Dollar Rises on Strong US Producer Prices and Middle East Tensions
    March 18, 2026, 1:16 PM EDT. The U.S. dollar index climbed 0.30% after February's producer price index (PPI) showed stronger-than-expected rises, signaling potential Federal Reserve hawkishness. PPI final demand increased 0.7% month-on-month and 3.4% year-on-year, exceeding forecasts. Core PPI, excluding food and energy, surged 0.5% m/m and 3.9% y/y, the largest annual rise in over a year. Meanwhile, tensions escalated in the Iran conflict, with Tehran targeting Gulf energy infrastructure, prompting stock declines and boosting dollar demand. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is expected to maintain current rates amid inflation pressures, with markets pricing zero chance of immediate rate cuts. The euro and yen weakened against the dollar due to the geopolitical risks and rising crude oil prices, both negative for energy-importing economies. Japanese authorities hinted at currency intervention to manage yen losses.
