Dollar Settles as Safe-Haven Demand Eases
The U.S. dollar stabilized near the 99.00-99.98 mark against major currencies as geopolitical safe-haven demand eased following news that the U.S. halted a planned strike in the Middle East. Despite Japan reporting annualized Q1 GDP growth of 2.1%, the yen remained largely flat near 158.89 per dollar amid ongoing intervention warnings. Markets also tracked volatile WTI crude oil prices swinging near $108.69 amid Strait of Hormuz closures, forcing traders to reassess inflation risks and Federal Reserve interest rate expectations ahead of a leadership change.
