  • Dollar Gains on Weak Stocks, Iran Conflict, and Higher Yields
    March 20, 2026, 1:21 PM EDT. The U.S. dollar strengthened by 0.50% amid weak stock markets and geopolitical tensions from the Iran war, boosting demand as a safe haven. Rising Treasury yields widened interest rate differentials supporting the dollar. Federal Reserve Chair Powell's comments reinforced expectations of persistent policy tightening, with only a 12% chance priced for a rate hike at the upcoming FOMC meeting. The euro fell 0.45%, pressured by a hawkish ECB tone amidst dovish German producer prices, while ECB rate hike odds rose to 78%. The yen dropped 0.87%, weighed down by escalating oil prices and higher U.S. yields. Precious metals retreated as the stronger dollar and rising bond yields discouraged demand, amid hawkish global central bank signals triggered by rising energy costs from the Iran conflict.
