Abstract

This paper researches the link between benchmark crude oil prices and the U.S. dollar exchange rate, in rising, stable and falling oil markets. The methods used to explore the relationship in various markets were cointegration testing and Granger causality tests. The method allows the author to analyse the link in the short run and long run. The results found that in the long run a relationship does exist between oil prices and U.S. dollar exchange rate in stable markets. In rising and falling markets there is no long run relationship. The study did find evidence of a short relationship in rising, stable and falling oil markets
