Dollar Index mirrors Trump's first term performance in uncanny chart

A chart created by Adam Turnquist of LPL Financial reveals a striking similarity between the U.S. Dollar Index's performance during Donald Trump's two presidential terms. The index has followed an almost identical pattern in terms of magnitude and duration of moves, rallying after Trump's election victories, declining, and then staging a significant climb. This symmetry persists despite vastly different macroeconomic conditions between the two terms, suggesting that the dollar's strength may be more tied to perceptions of U.S. economic outperformance and policy sentiment rather than specific interest rate differentials or Federal Reserve actions.
