The currency markets are responding to proposed U.S. tariffs by pushing the dollar to two-year highs against its trading rivals, countering Trump's protectionist goals.
As Trump's trade proposals loom, the rising dollar restores pricing power for overseas exporters selling into the U.S., allowing them to maintain market share despite potential tariffs.
The argument for a stronger dollar suggests that Trump's tariffs combined with U.S. tax cuts might bolster domestic demand, influencing the Federal Reserve's policy decisions.
The euro's drop of nearly 7% has partially negated the impact of a prospective U.S. 10% tariff, highlighting market reactions before implementation.
