A gauge of the dollar’s strength skyrocketed to its highest level on record, eclipsing the peak from the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of developed- and emerging-market currencies, rose as much as 1.2% to 1304.55 Thursday, pushing to fresh session highs after data showed US producer pricesestimates. The level is above the mark it hit in March 2020, with the previous high in data stretching back to 2005.

The greenback’s gains this year have been fueled by a combination of higher central bank interest rates, haven buying, and recession concerns. Thursday’s climb was driven primarily by rising short-term yields following higher-than-expected inflation data, as investors boost bets on an aggressive rate hike by the Federal Reserve later this month.

“That’s adding a lot of pressure on global risk across currencies, equities, rates, you name it. Everything is under pressure at the moment, and in this environment it’s very difficult for FX markets to look outside the dollar.”The ICE US Dollar Index, a separate gauge that compares the greenback to developed currencies only and has a greater weighting for the euro, exceeded its pandemic peak earlier this year and is currently near its strongest level in two decades.
