Exchange rate developments in the world market

The US Dollar Index (DXY) measuring the greenback's movements against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF) fell 1.15% to 105.59.

The US dollar fell sharply, while the euro rose to a three-month high against the greenback, after Germany announced a proposal to set up a 500 billion euro fund for infrastructure and increased defence spending.

The euro also rose after fresh news that the US and Ukrainian governments plan to sign a mineral deal today (March 5) following a tense meeting in the Oval Office last weekend between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and US President Donald Trump.

The EUR at one point rose to $1.0623, its highest level since December 6, 2024. The currency closed the session up 1.2% at $1.0611.

Against the Japanese yen, the euro hit a two-week high, closing up 1.2% at 158.64 yen.

President Donald Trump has told his advisers he wants to announce the mineral deal in a speech to Congress on the evening of March 5.

The minerals deal is seen as a step towards a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine to end the more than three-year conflict, but it remains unclear whether the deal will change.

The dollar fell against most other currencies on concerns about slowing growth and the impact of tariffs on the US economy.

President Donald Trump's 25% tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico took effect on March 4, along with a doubling of tariffs on imports from China to 20%.

For its part, China said it would impose additional tariffs of 10-15% on some US imports starting March 10. Canada said its retaliatory tariffs on the US would also take effect soon, and Mexico is expected to follow suit.

Elsewhere, the British Pound rose to its highest level since mid-December 2024 and closed the session up 0.7% at $1.2784.
