According to IHS Markit's Final US Manufacturing PMI for February, the headline index fell a little to 57.3 from the flash estimate of 57.5.
The DXY did not react but remains underpinned on the day by a safe-haven bid, with price action in the global equity space wobbly and commodity prices surging amid fears of supply disruptions as the Russia/Ukraine crisis worsens. The index remains comfortably support above 97.00 ahead of the more widely followed ISM Manufacturing PMI release at 1500GMT.
