This morning's S&P 500 Index e-mini futures (ES-Z2) were trading higher by 7.25 points to $1433.75 per contract as the market's futures rally seemed to be coming on a decline in the U.S. Dollar Index.

The Inverse Relationship
By now, everyone should know that the only time the stock market advances or trades higher is when the U.S. Dollar Index deflates or sells off. Traders must continue to watch the U.S. Dollar Index as the day trades on. Just remember, the stock market continues to trade inversely to the U.S. Dollar.

A few leading equities that are likely to trade higher on the back of a weaker U.S. Dollar Index include Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (NYSE: FCX), Rio Tinto plc. (ADR) (NYSE: RIO), ProShares Ultra Silver (ETF) (NYSEARCA: AGQ) and the Deutsche Bank AG DB Gold Double Long ETN (NYSEARCA: DGP). Remember that each of these equities is likely to pullback or decline should the U.S. Dollar Index catch a bid higher on today's session.
