The euro fell to a 17 month low against the US dollar, while the US dollar index rose to 102.37
Affected by financial and political uncertainty in France, the euro fell to 1.1161 against the US dollar, the lowest level since May 2025. The yield difference between French 10-year treasury bond bonds and German treasury bond bonds exceeded 150 basis points. The safe haven demand supported the US dollar index to rise 0.47% to 102.37, but weak US employment data limited the dollar's gains.
