The dollar fell on continued concerns about the U.S. economic impact of President Trump's tariffs. "Questions are being raised about the U.S.'s exceptionalism and credibility as a reserve currency," Jefferies economist Mohit Kumar said in a note. In the medium term, tariffs could reduce U.S. reliability and investors will look for alternative destinations, he said. The era of a strong dollar has peaked and the currency is likely to face further weakness, he said. Gold prices could benefit as central banks look to diversify away from the dollar. The DXY dollar index fell 0.7% to 99.4730. (Newsmaker23)
