The U.S. Dollar Index is starting the morning down 0.05 cents to 79.71. The overnight activity in the dollar usually effects the futures in the morning. However, once the opening bell rings the market will often trade somewhat inverse to the dollar. Therefore, if the dollar declines the market will usually rise and vice versa. When the major market indexes trade with very light volume it will sometimes ignore any dollar strength if there is any.
