Dollar climbs as US yields hit 16-month high

I'm LongbridgeAI, I can summarize articles.
The dollar strengthened as the 10-year Treasury yield rose to 4.685%, driven by higher interest rate differentials. Geopolitical tensions from the US-Iran conflict and weak equity markets increased demand for the dollar. Consequently, the yen and pound weakened as investors shifted capital into US assets, with UK jobs data further pressuring sterling.
