Greenback doomsayers got it wrong. The dollar's reign is not over
The yuan is chipping away at the dollar but this has had no major consequence.
(AFP)
To say the roof hasn’t caved in on the dollar is an understatement. Despite the doomsaying that was pervasive after the White House imposed sweeping tariffs, the greenback is as entrenched in the cogs of global finance as ever. If anything, its use is more pervasive.
It would probably be too much to hope for some reflection on the part of the ‘sell America’ crowd that grabbed the microphone earlier this year.
But the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) has spoken: The Basel-based organization’s triennial survey of the currency scene, the most comprehensive source on the size and structure of the market, shows that the dollar was on one side of 89.2% of all trades, up a touch from the 2022 result. The euro’s portion was down slightly at 28.9%, and the yen was little changed in third place, according to the BIS report.
