The rise over the past year is amazing due to the endless domestic issues that businesses have been facing. Many of the businesses in question focus on international customer volume amid inflation but the Euro has tumbled to a low.

Dollar indexes, which track the dollar, shot above $1.07 while the Euro fell below $1.02. Both of these figures were last seen in December 2002. The dollar has strengthened specifically due to energy prices and the Fed’s rising interest rates.

“You have traditional macro factors that are driving dollar strength right now. High-interest rates in the U.S. and a trade shift which is beneficial to the U.S. adds to the sustainability of the dollar’s strength.”

Shabab Jalinoos, the global head of macro trading strategy at Credit Suisse, said.
