CoinWorld News reported that Jane Foley from Rabobank stated in a report that the US dollar may have further room to strengthen due to a lack of signs of easing in Middle East conflicts. The dollar's appreciation since the conflict began should settle previous debates about whether the dollar lost its safe-haven properties after declining in April last year due to tariffs. She expressed that the dollar still faces uncertainties, including how the Federal Reserve will balance political pressure for rate cuts with inflationary pressures from rising energy prices. However, as an oil-exporting nation, the US's terms of trade may improve as a result.
