The US Dollar Index is close to its three year highs. The weekly trend is up as long as support stemming from 2013 highs at 85 remains intact. Next long-term key levels are September/October highs at 87, before the 88-90 area that dates back to the years 2008-2010 of the financial crisis. We will have to wait and see when dollar strength will start to bother the Fed.
