Other currency
In other forex markets, the Australian dollar fell to $0.6487, its lowest level since May 2020, while the Canadian dollar fell to C$1.3625 per greenback, its lowest level since July 2020. The euro also hit a new 20-year low of $0.9528 and was last down 0.5%.
According to Reuters data, China’s offshore yuan fell to a new low of 7.1630 per dollar, the weakest since May 2020.
British Pound held steady on Tuesday, but only because of soaring yields on British debt and the expectation of a response from policymakers or politicians, with its gyrations unnerving markets to the dollar’s benefit.
The pound fell to a record low of $1.0327 on Friday and Monday, as investors questioned Britain’s economic gamble of unfunded tax cuts to spur growth.
It has recovered to $1.0770, aided by the Bank of England’s promise to monitor markets and raise interest rates if necessary.
