Will Trump’s tariffs push USD even higher?

Post by ChapInTokyo »

I was reading this article about how the proposed tariffs under Trump could very well lead to the US dollar climbing higher.

What are your guesses?
Donald Trump’s policies risk making the US dollar a source of global instability

Although Trump favours a weaker exchange rate, his policies are likely to have the opposite effect. The risk is that the US dollar could become too strong, which is bad news for the global economy.

“ Since boosting the US economy will create inflationary pressure, ”

I don’t think that is necessarily the case, although that is the common model of thinking I suppose.
