Dollar Hits 3-Year Low Against Euro. The Bottom Isn’t Clear.

The dollar was falling to multiyear lows early Friday. It’s a sign of market wariness about U.S. assets amid tariff uncertainty and it’s not clear when the slump might end.

The DXY Dollar Index, which measures the greenback against a basket of major currencies, fell to 99.20, sliding to a 10-year low against the Swiss franc and a three-year low against the euro.

“The dollar collapse is working as a barometer of 'sell America' at the moment. The rotation to other traditional safe-havens like CHF [the Swiss franc], the Japanese yen or even the euro is justified by the loss of USD safe-haven appeal,” wrote ING analyst Francesco Pesole in a research note.
