After spending the entire previous period in the depreciation area, the U.S. dollar index managed to recover and have a successful week. The world's largest economy's currency strengthened against almost all of its observed peers, only failing to surpass the yen, which was on an uptrend throughput the whole period. The period is especially remarkable with the USD Index finally bringing one of its longer-term changes up to a positive value - something it was struggling to do for the past month.
