Dollar Faces Renewed Pressure From Policy Shifts

The US dollar is under renewed pressure in early 2026 as Washington's apparent preference for a weaker currency, Fed rate-cut expectations and geopolitical tensions prompt investors to reassess dollar stability, Reuters reported. The currency is on track for its largest three-day drop since April and has fallen about 5.3% trade-weighted over the past 12 months, after a more than 9% 2025 decline.
