USD exchange rate today in the world
In the US market, the US Dollar Index (DXY) measuring the greenback's fluctuations against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF) increased by 0.75%, currently at 109.24.
The US dollar hit a two-year high on the first trading day of 2025, boosted by expectations of strong US economic growth and high interest rates. The US Federal Reserve said it would be cautious about cutting interest rates as inflation remains above its 2% target and the economy is stable. President-elect Donald Trump's policies are also expected to boost growth and increase inflationary pressures.
The latest data shows that the US labor market remains strong, with jobless claims falling to an eight-month low. This reinforces the positive outlook for the dollar in 2025, especially if the Fed remains cautious on interest rate policy and Mr. Trump’s measures prove effective.
Meanwhile, the euro fell 1.01% to $1.025, its lowest since November 2022. Traders expect the European Central Bank (ECB) to cut interest rates further in 2025. Similarly, the pound fell 1.19% to $1.2368, its lowest since April, after breaking through a key resistance level.
The dollar also rose 0.47% against the Japanese yen to 157.61 yen, a five-month high, putting pressure on the Bank of Japan (BoJ) as it looks set to raise interest rates in the near future. The overall outlook for the dollar remains positive, although changes in ECB or BoJ policy could impact the currency market.
