China's monetary tightening will impact the USD. Why?

https://sg.news.yahoo.com/china-monetary-tightening-seen-warning-110908760.html

China's monetary tightening will have some impact on the USD and this can be seen on the credit impulse & US DXY chart.

The uptrend in US DXY means USD depreciation (inverse right axis) and vice versa.  The chart is depicted in such a way to show the high correlation.  The 2 lines may have a time lag of 6-12 months but they are still highly correlated to each other.

When China's credit impulse increases, the US DXY will increase too.  However, China's monetary tightening will decrease its credit impulse and will also lead to a decrease in US DXY.

How true is this?  We'll look at the USD index now.

As we can see, the USD index is reacting to China's monetary policy by trending higher recently.  As the USD and the risk-free rate (10y) are highly correlated, we should see the US treasury yields trending up too.

The US treasury yield for 10-year has increased from 0.93% to 1.15% now.
