Dollar Falls vs. Euro, Yen on Recession Fears | ForexGen

As the investors feared that the U.S. financial institutions will continue to lose on the credit crunch and the oil prices rose, the U.S. dollar declined from its local maximums against euro and yen.

The U. S. currency fell for a second day against the euro and for the first day against the Japanese yen after the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis President Gary H. Stern said that the U.S. credit crisis will get even worse soon. Dollar declined even against the Great Britain pound today despite the poor dynamics of the pound against other currencies.

As the financial sector is still far from its normal state, the Fed won’t be able to raise the interest rate soon. The lack of traders’ confidence in higher rates prevents dollar from going for any significant bullish rally on Forex.
