World market developments

The US Dollar Index (DXY) measuring the greenback's movements against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF) increased by 0.46% to 100.10.

The US dollar rose against the euro and the Japanese yen, showing cautious signs of recovery after a sharp sell-off that sent the DXY index down more than 3% last week.

However, investors remain cautious over concerns about the impact of trade tariffs from the Trump administration on the US economy.

The rapid changes in tariff announcements sent investors fleeing to safe-haven assets, sending Treasury yields surging last week and denting the greenback’s appeal.

“The dollar is largely driven by asset flows rather than traditional short-term drivers like interest rate differentials,” said Vassili Serebriakov, FX and macro strategist at UBS.

Factors driving investors to seek safer haven assets include the downturn in the US economy, tariff uncertainty, uncertainty in US policy in general, improved sentiment towards Europe...,” Mr. Serebriakov commented.

U.S. import prices unexpectedly fell in March, dragged down by lower costs for energy products, data showed on April 15, the latest sign that inflation was easing before President Trump’s tariffs take effect.

Trading is relatively quiet this week so far, but investors remain cautious and await more clarity on tariff policy.

In contrast, the EUR fell 0.70% on the day to $1.127, after hitting a three-year high of $1.1473 last week.

The shift from US assets to European assets could pave the way for a rally in the EUR.

The dollar rose 0.12 percent against the Japanese yen to 143.16 yen, not far from a six-month low of 142.05 hit late last week.

The pound rose 0.15 percent to $1.3209 after hitting $1.3252, its highest since Oct. 3.
