On Tuesday, the US dollar reached a new high since the beginning of July, continuing its upward trend that began after Trump's victory in the presidential election. The US dollar index, which measures the exchange rate against six major world currencies, rose 0.32% to 105.88. The fall of the euro to a seven-month low and the yuan to its lowest level in three months indicates worries about potential trade wars that Trump has threatened to wage against Europe and China. Experts attribute the growth of the dollar to expectations of an increase in interest rates in the United States and the strengthening of the American economy. Also, the news of Trump's alleged appointments to key foreign policy positions, known for their tough stance towards China, supported this growth. Control of both houses of Congress, which Trump's Republican Party will gain in January, will allow him to implement his economic initiatives, including tax cuts. Meanwhile, Trump continues to threaten trade wars against the European Union and China, which is causing concern among investors and undermining the global economic outlook.
