The dollar was stable on Tuesday, but remained close to the minimum of three years against the euro and a six -month channel against the Yen that hit last week, since investors fought to make sense of overseas and final changes in US tariffs.
Even so, the currency markets were much quieter in the early Asian hours after the agitation of last week, the bad Bad Badsed the dollar despite an increase in treasure yields, highlighting the tremor of investors in green and American assets.
The dollar was 0.27% higher in 143.53 yen, but remained close to the minimum of six months of 142.05 that played on Friday. The euro decreased 0.22% to $ 1,1324, just below the maximum of three years of $ 1,1474 last week.

“The recent pedaling of American tariffs has relieved part of the sharp market anxiety, softening the attractiveness of the dollar in the short term.”

“Last week it was about disarming, liquidation and reallocation of assets of the United States assets. This week’s tone is quieter in what is a week of vacation,” said Prashant Newnaha, senior Asia-Pacific rates on TD Securities.
“Helping to establish the tone were the comments of the FED officials, a suggestion that they are looking beyond inflation.”
The governor of the Fed, Christopher Waller, said on Monday that Trump administration tariff policies are a great shock for the US economy that could lead to the Federal Reserve to reduce interest rates to avoid a recession, even inflation remains high.
