Trump and the US dollar - what's next?

In this video, Derek Halpenny, Head of Research, Global Markets EMEA and International Securities, discusses the outlook for the U.S. dollar following the recent U.S election, analysing the potential impacts of macroeconomic challenges such as higher debt-to-GDP ratios, elevated inflation, and the strongest dollar levels since 1984. He also explores the implications of key Treasury appointments in the Trump administration, highlighting how trade policy decisions could shape market dynamics and influence dollar appreciation.

Derek also considers the role of aggressive trade tariffs, potential European retaliation, and their effects on Eurodollar movements, with insights into rate expectations and inflationary pressures shaping global currency markets.
