Euro a ajuns luni la cel mai scăzut nivel faţă de dolarul SUA din ultimele 17 luni

The euro has reached its lowest level against the US dollar in 17 months, influenced by rising French government bond yields and US labor market data. It depreciated to 1.1161 dollars, amid concerns over France's high debt and political instability ahead of the 2027 elections. Analysts warn of potential contagion effects, as global bond yields rise, leading to increased borrowing costs. The situation in France raises fears of a broader eurozone crisis, prompting speculation about possible intervention by the European Central Bank. The gap between French and German bond yields has widened significantly, reflecting investor distrust in French debt.
