UUP Momentum Breakout Confirmation Strategy
Created
Thesis
Oil spikes from the US-Iran conflict feed straight into inflation expectations, and higher expected inflation is pushing traders to price in more Fed rate hikes rather than cuts. Both forces — expensive energy and 'higher for longer' rates — pull global money toward the dollar, as reflected in the cautious, dollar-favoring tone across Asian markets. A basket tracking the dollar versus major currencies is a clean way to own this trend without betting on any single stock. The trade stays valid as long as oil keeps climbing and bond yields keep making new highs.
