The US dollar rises after the Federal Reserve's decision
The US dollar rose against major currencies today after the Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged, and interest rate-sensitive two-year Treasury bond yields rose to their highest levels in 17 years after the Fed’s decision.
The Japanese yen fell against the US dollar by 0.13% to 148.05 yen, and the pound sterling fell against the US dollar by 0.28% to $1.2357 after annual inflation in Britain unexpectedly fell in August.
The main dollar index, which measures the performance of the US currency against 6 major currencies, rose by 0.09% to 105.21 after falling to 104.66 earlier in the session, and the index rose for the ninth consecutive week last week, which is its longest series of gains in nearly a decade.
