Investors are flocking back to the U.S.
dollar.
They're betting that the AI boom will keep the American economy strong and that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates high.
Wagers on a stronger dollar rose last week by the most since 2018.
That took the green back to its highest level in more than a year.
The currency began its rise with the start of the Iran war.
Investors believe that the U.S.
was able to handle a jump in oil prices better than other countries.
And the dollars remained high despite news of a possible end to the conflict.
Now, we could be seeing a stronger dollar for a while.
The Federal Reserve is expected to keep interest rates steady during its first meeting with Kevin Warsh's chair.
As far as interest rates go, the FT put out a poll this week.
It found that a majority of leading economists say that the Fed will need to raise rates by at least a quarter point by the end of the year to combat inflation.
Last week, SpaceX's initial public offering was the largest in history.
And on the morning we're recording this, Tuesday, it briefly passed Microsoft as the fourth largest company by market capitalization.
All the while, Elon Musk, the owner of SpaceX, has become the world's first trillionaire, thanks to his shares in the AI to rockets business.
But for some, the SpaceX listing and its blockbuster valuation is a reason to worry, not celebrate.
In the run-up to the IPO, U.S.
Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren wrote to the head of the Securities and Exchange Commission asking the regulator to delay the listing.
Warren is a ranking member of the Senate Banking Committee.
