The US benchmark interest rate, which was originally expected to rise by around 75 basis points (bps) in 2022, has drastically changed to 175 bps. For the record, the increase in the US benchmark interest rate has increased by 75 bps. An increase of 25 bps occurred in March 2022 and then rose again by 50 bps in May. This will make the dollar strengthen for the next few weeks.
