DXYThe U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) is a measure of the U.S. dollar’s value relative to a basket of six major foreign currencies:
• Euro (EUR) – the largest component (~57.6%)
• Japanese Yen (JPY)
• British Pound (GBP)
• Canadian Dollar (CAD)
• Swedish Krona (SEK)
• Swiss Franc (CHF)
DXY rises when the U.S. dollar strengthens against these currencies and falls when it weakens. It is widely used by traders, investors, and policymakers to assess the dollar’s strength in global markets.
