The Dollar's Double Life: Not All Dollar Appreciations Are Born Equal for the Cross‐Currency Basis

Journal of Futures Markets, Volume 46, Issue 4, Page 754-772, April 2026.

We show that the strength and direction of this relationship depend on the prevailing regime of the broad dollar. The evidence suggests that the well‐documented “dollar appreciates, basis widens” result holds primarily when the dollar is in ...
