The US dollar weakened against a basket of major currencies due to the impact of trade conflicts on the country’s economy. The dollar index (#DX) closed in the negative zone (-0.62%). Global trade relations are escalating. Yesterday, the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, James Bullard said that the regulator might be forced to reduce interest rates due to low inflation and the threat posed by the US trade conflict with China. The greenback was under pressure due to weak statistics on economic activity in the manufacturing sector of the United States. In addition, US President Donald Trump entrusted to exclude India from the list of countries that had trade privileges from June 5. He believes that India does not provide equitable and reasonable access to its markets.<\/p>\n
