Currency & FXGeopolitics & WarMarket Technicals & FlowsInvestor Sentiment & PositioningBanking & Liquidity

The dollar index fell 0.15% to a 7-week low as hopes grew that the war in Iran may be nearing an end, reducing safe-haven demand for the dollar. A stock-market rally also cut liquidity demand, adding pressure to the greenback. The move is notable for FX and risk sentiment but does not appear to signal a broader macro shock.
