International Monetary Fund (IMF) data also showed that the share of the US dollar in global foreign exchange reserves fell sharply to below 60% in the fourth quarter of 2020, the lowest level in 25 years.
Investors are concerned about the comments of US Treasury Secretary quan quan Yellen on interest rates being able to increase if the economy develops hotly.
Yellen's comments suggest that raising interest rates is necessary to keep the economy from getting too hot. This stimulates the USD price to increase strongly.
Ms. Yellen's comments immediately rocked the US stock market. Technology stocks fell sharply. Yellen later said she did not expect or recommend the US Federal Reserve (Fed) to raise interest rates. She stressed that she respect the independence of the Fed and would not make any policy recommendations.
The Fed has pledged to keep interest rates near 0% until the labor market recovers and inflation remains above the 2% target for some time, but experts and investors warn that government spending will increase inflation.
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said the labor market still lacks much compared to the necessary level.
