Fed & interest rates
The reference price is formed in an auction attended by a small number of participants, twice each trading day.
US dollar
The auction runs in dollars and produces the figure from which every other currency price is calculated.
Inflation / CPI
Long-term supply contracts settle against that auction, which gives it a role no continuous quote can fill.
Safe-haven demand
During a fast market the auction price and the continuous price can differ noticeably, and both are legitimate.
Bond yields
Financing quotes formed around the auction reflect prevailing rates rather than any view on direction.
