DoubleLine believes the U.S. dollar peaked in September 2022, as measured by the DXY Index. While we see the disinflation trend continuing, inflation surprises or a flight-to-quality move could cause dollar strength in the near term. DoubleLine would view any near-term strength in the dollar as an entry point to add to a short dollar position via emerging markets (EM) hard currency, EM local currency, non-dollar developed market bonds or foreign exchange (fx) forwards. DoubleLine believes there are a multitude of potential factors that could lead to dollar weakness over the medium term.
