Dollar Strength and Market Reactions

The dollar is experiencing significant strength, with the DXY index reaching 110. Concurrently, 10-year bond yields have risen to 4.8%, even amid the Federal Reserve's cutting cycle. This combination is creating turbulence in the financial markets, reflected in declining values across various assets, including Bitcoin, which is testing critical support levels at around $90,000. Analysts suggest that this volatility could be a reaction to uncertainty ahead of a forthcoming presidential inauguration rather than an indication of deeper systemic issues.
