During today's Asian trading, the US dollar rose against the euro and the pound, but declined against the yen.

The ICE index, which tracks the dollar's performance against six currencies (euro, swiss franc, yen, canadian dollar, pound sterling and swedish krona), rose 0.35%.

The dollar is supported by the flight of investors from risks on the background of rising US Treasury yields: the yield on ten-year US Treasuries on Thursday rose above 1.6% for the first time in a year. By the close of the market, the yield of securities was 1.525%, on Friday it fell to 1.477%.

The growth in the yields of US government securities traditionally supports the dollar: the higher the rates, the more attractive the US currency is for buyers. At the same time, it is a wake-up call for risky assets that have largely benefited from exceptionally soft financial conditions during the coronavirus pandemic.

Forecasts of a faster-than-expected economic recovery are fueling concerns about the possibility of faster inflation in the United States, which could push the Federal Reserve to raise its benchmark interest rate.

The Federal Reserve does not yet expect US inflation to increase "to alarming levels," Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said earlier this week.

Meanwhile, Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City President Esther George warned that U.S. inflation could accelerate rapidly when more Americans are vaccinated against COVID-19.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
