BNY's Geoff Yu observes that the recent US Dollar strength is due to US exceptionalism rather than fresh cross-border buying, noting that underweights have already been adjusted.

BNY strategist Geoff Yu attributes the recent strength of the US Dollar to US economic exceptionalism rather than new inflows from overseas buyers. According to Yu, currency underweights have already been reduced, limiting additional demand from repositioning.
This suggests the current USD rally is driven more by relative economic outperformance than by fresh capital seeking dollar-denominated assets. The observation implies that further dollar gains may require renewed fundamental catalysts beyond existing positioning adjustments.
