💵 US dollar is falling at the fastest pace since 1980

The dollar has become the second worst performer in the G10. A year ago it was the strongest. In the last 3 months, most major currencies gained sharply against it.

✅ Australian dollar up about 8%
✅ Swedish krona up over 10%
✅ New Zealand dollar up 5%
✅ Norwegian krone up close to 2%

The pressure comes from several angles. Political uncertainty in the US is rising. Trade policy looks aggressive and hard to predict, with tariffs coming back into focus. That has triggered a broad “sell America” move, with capital flowing out of US assets.

There are also doubts around Fed independence. Public pressure for easier policy makes markets question how insulated monetary decisions really are. Add growing fiscal deficits and rising debt, and confidence in the dollar takes another hit.

This looks less like a quick move and more like a shift in how global markets price US risk.
