The dollar index spiked to a one-week high and regained strength to a yearly high in the previous session tracking higher yields amid rising geo-political tensions between Russia and Ukraine. Uptrend in the counter stays intact, supported by the economy's resilience and limited expectations of aggressive Fed easing.

The dollar index that measures the greenback against a basket of currencies is quoting at 106.55, off yesterday's sharp spike and marginally lower on the day.
