USD exchange rate today 5/5/2025: USD decreased by 0.11%

Last week, the US made a new move to resume trade negotiations with China. China then sent a positive signal, calling on the US to lift unilateral tariffs and show goodwill to cooperate. This development contributed to easing trade tensions between the world's two largest economies .

In addition, the US April employment report showed positive results, helping the USD reduce selling pressure. According to a market trend analysis tool, the greenback has escaped the strong selling zone and returned to a neutral state.

Experts say the US may be forced to enter negotiations soon, as the negative impact of tariffs is spreading. The number of cargo ships arriving at US ports has decreased, especially retailers and importers have temporarily stopped placing orders from China. If this situation continues, the US may face the risk of high inflation due to shortages of consumer goods and production equipment.

A thaw in trade tensions, if sustained and translated into substantive negotiations, would not only improve bilateral relations but could also support a rebound in the US dollar.
