| | DailyFX Forex Correlations Weekly: US Dollar at Record Correlation to Dow Jones
| The Dow Jones FXCM Dollar Index (ticker: USDOLLAR) trades with a record correlation to the Dow Jones Industrial Average-cementing the US Dollar's position as a foremost safe-haven currency and having clear implications for its next moves. The Dow Jones FXCM Dollar Index recently traded to fresh multi-month lows as the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit its highest levels since early August. The strong link between the US currency and stocks likewise means that the AUDUSD and EURUSD correlations to the Dow trade near record strength. All in all, we expect this strong correlation to continue. If the Dow and broader stock markets continue their recent rallies, expect the US Dollar to fall further against nearly all major forex counterparts.
