MUFG’s Lloyd Chan notes that persistent geopolitical tensions around Iran are reinforcing USD strength. Elevated US yields, resilient labour data and fading expectations for Fed rate cuts underpin Dollar carry appeal. Prolonged disruptions to energy flows via the Strait of Hormuz are seen as particularly damaging for Asia, skewing risks toward a stronger USD in a risk-off environment.
Geopolitics and yields back stronger Dollar
"Geopolitical risks remain the dominant driver of market sentiment."
