U.S. Dollar Faces Continued Pressure Amid Rate Cut Expectations

  • On the second of April, sweeping tariffs were introduced by President Trump's government on imports from the majority of countries, a day the president referred to as 'Liberation Day.'
  • The administration announced a 90-day pause on most tariffs on April 9, set to expire on July 9 amid ongoing trade talks with major partners.
  • Despite the tariff pause and trade agreements nearing completion, the US dollar weakened sharply, dropping 10.8% in the first half of the year to a three-year low.
  • FX strategist Alex Cohen said consistent selling by European real money and structural factors lead to dollar declines, while over 80% of analysts expect net-shorts to increase by end-July.
  • The dollar's weakness reflects rising rate cut expectations, volatile tariffs, and growing debt concerns, signaling continued uncertainty for investors and policy makers.
