The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) rebounded from its multi-year lows on Monday night, up 0.24% at 99.88, after reaching a high of 99.67 during the day.

Despite the relief to the electronics and semiconductors industries by the U.S. Government by announcing an exemption for reciprocal tariffs, markets remain under the grip of uncertainty, with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announcing on Sunday that this reprieve might only be temporary.

Markets are also on the edge with several big names set to announce their earnings this week, such as Bank of America Corp. ( BAC ) , Johnson & Johnson ( JNJ ) , Citigroup Inc. ( C ) , American Express Co. ( AXP ) , and Netflix Inc. ( NFLX ) , among several others.
