Yet we don’t think this portends a sustained rally.  \n• [A soft U.S. jobs](A soft U.S. jobs) report helped cap gains in U.S. 10-year Treasury yields. Yet the structural forces driving long-term yields remain intact.  \n• We look to September FOMC meeting minutes for details on the central bank’s discussion underscoring its first rate hike in three years.  \nThe U.S. dollar has rallied over the past month, taking its gains this year to about 4% against developed-market currencies. Its resilience suggests it may be too soon to write off the dollar’s long-term role. Familiar drivers like rate differentialsand risk sentiment help explain the rebound. Yet the greenback is stronger than the level suggested by our analysis. With markets pricing more Fed tightening than we think will materialize, there is limited scope for a sustained dollar bull run.  \nSwing dollar  \n[U.S. dollar index vs. trade-weighted two-year yield](U.S. dollar index vs. trade-weighted two-year yield) differential, 2022–2026  \nDXY index  \n115  \n110  \n105  \n100  \n95  \n90  \n DXY index  \n Weighted 2y yield differential (right)  \n3.0  \n2.5  \n2.0  \n1.5  \n1.0  \n0.5  \nYield d iffe rent ia ls (pp)  \n2022 2023 2024 2025 2026  \nSource: BlackRock Investment Institute, with data from LSEG Datastream, October 2026.

The yellow line shows the trade-weighted average U.S. two-year yield differential versus Germany, Japan, the UK, Canada, Sweden and Switzerland (right axis), using DXY currency weights. Yield differentials are shown in percentage points.  \nThe dollar’s journey over the past 18 months has been telling. It fell sharply after President Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariff announcements fueled warnings about dollar debasement, stabilized, then weakened again this summer amid Fed credibility concerns. It has since rebounded as Fed rate expectations swung dramatically – from as many as two cuts this year to one hike already delivered and more tightening priced. The dollar has closely tracked the resulting shift in two-year yield differentials. See the chart. The DXY has now retraced most of its post-April 2 tariff decline. That supports our pushback last year against the dollar debasement narrative. Yet we don’t expect a sustained appreciation cycle. Even with Fed repricing, strong U.S. growth and robust equity inflows, our analysis suggests the dollar is stronger than these and other fundamental driversimply. The bar for further gains is high.  \nJean Boivin  \nHead – BlackRock Investment Institute  \nWei Li  \nGlobal Chief Investment Strategist – BlackRock  \nRoelof Salomons  \nChief Investment Strategist for the Netherlands and the Nordics – BlackRock Investment Institute  \nMichel Dilmanian  \nPortfolio Strategist – BlackRock Investment Institute  \nBII1026-M-5987502-EXP1027-1/5  \nCAPITAL AT RISK.
