U.S. Dollar's 'Golden Cross' Signals Trouble for Global Markets

TL;DR Summary
The U.S. dollar is on track to complete its first "golden cross" since July 2021, indicating a potential upward trend and potential trouble for stocks. A golden cross occurs when the 50-day moving average surpasses the 200-day moving average, often signaling momentum in a particular direction. The dollar's recent gains, coupled with rising Treasury yields, could pose challenges for the stock market. Analysts suggest that the Federal Reserve's decision to maintain interest rates above 5% through 2024 may further support the dollar's upward trajectory.
