US Dollar Edges Higher on Gulf Tensions, Cooling Oil and Canadian Inflation

The US Dollar Index rose around 0.2% toward 101.00 as higher US Treasury yields and escalating Middle East tensions supported the greenback, while cooling oil prices and softer Canadian inflation data provided additional market context.

The US Dollar Index (DXY) gained approximately 0.2% on Tuesday, trading near the 101.00 level. The move was fueled by a rise in US Treasury yields and heightened geopolitical tensions in the Gulf region, which traditionally boost demand for the safe-haven dollar.

At the same time, a decline in oil prices and softer-than-expected Canadian inflation figures contributed to the broader market backdrop. The combination of these factors kept the dollar bid, though traders remained cautious amid ongoing Middle East developments. No specific data points were provided in the source.
