The US dollar rose against six major currencies as traders largely ignored the new tariffs and focused on key US inflation data due on Tuesday.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday threatened to impose a 30% tariff on imports from Mexico and the European Union starting Aug. 1, after weeks of negotiations with major trading partners failed to reach a comprehensive deal. But markets have become increasingly immune to tariff-related headlines since Trump first announced higher-than-expected tariffs in April, then delayed their implementation.
“This has happened before and the shock factor is gone,” said Joseph Trevisani, senior analyst at FX Street. “The negative expectations haven’t materialized yet, so I don’t think the market will be too focused on the new tariffs.”
The European Union on Monday accused the United States of obstructing efforts to reach a trade deal and warned of retaliation if no deal is reached to avoid punitive tariffs.
US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said he expects inflation to rise this summer due to the impact of tariffs, which could prompt the Fed to keep interest rates on hold until the end of the year.
Economists polled by Reuters expect headline inflation to rise to 2.7% year-on-year in May, up from 2.4% last month. Core inflation is forecast to rise to 3.0%. U.S. President Donald Trump continued his attack on Powell on Monday, saying interest rates should be at 1% or lower.
The dollar was also supported after President Trump announced on Monday that he would provide new weapons to Ukraine, while threatening to sanction countries that buy from Russia if Moscow fails to reach a peace deal with Ukraine.
The euro fell 0.16% to $1.167, having earlier hit a three-week low of $1.1649. President Trump’s tariff threats are complicating decisions at the European Central Bank (ECB), but ECB officials said they were unlikely to derail plans to pause interest rate cuts next week.
The greenback has been supported by rising US Treasury yields this month, following a sell-off that has seen the index fall nearly 10% since the start of the year.
Against the Japanese yen, the dollar rose 0.22% to 147.72 yen, its highest since June 23. The British pound fell 0.52% to 1.3429 dollars, its lowest since June 23.
In a letter to G20 finance ministers and central bank governors on Monday, Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey said uncertainty continued to weigh on growth expectations, calling for vigilance against the risk of disruptive market volatility.
