Global equities faltered as the U.S. dollar rebounded, fueled by unexpectedly strong service sector data. Asian currencies bore the brunt, with the Taiwanese dollar plunging 3.2%—erasing its largest gain in years. The yen and yuan followed suit, reflecting regional forex unease.

U.S. futures mirrored the turbulence, with S&P 500 contracts down 0.4%.

All eyes now turn to the Federal Reserve’s policy deliberations, where traders seek clarity on rate trajectories.
