DXY below 97 weakens the dollar and favors risk assets. If the Fed becomes more dovish, the short term remains pressured, creating a positive scenario for crypto and commodities.

The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) fell below the 97 mark on Monday, marking the first time since September of last year. According to ChainCatcher, this decline has sparked discussions among investors about the potential involvement of the United States in Japan's foreign exchange intervention efforts, raising concerns about the dollar's status as a global reserve currency. Daniel Baesa, Senior Vice President at Frontclear, noted that signals of policy coordination could intensify short-term downward pressure on the dollar, particularly if the Federal Reserve adopts a dovish stance.
