After World War 1, the US Dollar was pegged to gold under the 1944 Bretton Woods Agreement, which allowed it to become the world’s reserve currency as the US held three-fourths of the world’s gold supply.

Today, a variety of actions that have unsettled the stock and bond markets have worked together to boost the Dollar’s value against other currencies. These include the Fed rate increases, Russia’s war in Ukraine, global sanctions on Russia, soaring commodity prices, China’s lockdowns, and Europe’s and Japan’s economic slowdowns.

The U.S. Dollar Index, which tracks the dollar against six other important currencies, is hovering at levels it hadn’t reached in 20 years. Since the start of the year, it has gained 8 percent; in the last 12 months, it has risen 14 percent. Against the Japanese yen, the dollar has risen more than 13 percent this year alone.

The Federal Reserve’s latest moves to tighten monetary conditions are likely to spur the dollar further. Fed policymakers decided to raise short-term interest rates by half a percentage point and to begin reducing the bonds on its $9 trillion balance sheet in June 2022.

Despite trillions of dollars in foreign debt and continuous large deficit spending, the United States still holds global trust and confidence in its ability to pay its obligations. For this reason, the U.S. dollar remains the strongest world currency. It may continue to be the top global currency in the years to come.
