In addition, the Dollar index was at 85.544, quite near the peak of 85.798, last seen in mid-2010. In three months time, the Greenback has added over 7% on the account of Fed speculations on the interest rate increase. Overall, the U.S. economy has been faring well, with increased consumer spending and higher Treasury yields.
