US dollar plummets amid Trump's tariff policies

A weaker dollar could make US goods cheaper abroad and help reduce the trade deficit, but it's also making investors nervous.
Uncertainty around President Trump's tariff moves and a growing national debt have pushed people away from the dollar, while inflation worries and a huge $3 trillion budget bill are adding fuel to the fire.

Surprise tariff hikes, hints at intentional devaluation (the so-called "Mar-a-Lago Accord"), and uncertainty in global trade have all played a part.
The last time we saw drops like this was during major policy shakeups back in 1973.
