Real questions -
If the Job market is so fantastic, why isn't the pay rising? Notably wage growth in US remained sluggish since 2010 and averaging about 2 percent, much lower than pre crisis level as explained in the chart.

That leaves lot of room in asking what happens afterwards it raises rates in June. FED officials have reiterated over and over that the hike would be slow and gradual. In such a circumstance Dollar could run out of fuel after June.
Dollar index is currently trading at 97.4, still continuing its consecutive 9 monthly rise.
