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. The euro depreciated to 1.1161 dollars, amid concerns over France's high debt and political instability ahead of the 2027 elections. Analysts warn of a slow recovery for the euro, as global bond yields rise, leading to increased borrowing costs. The situation in France raises fears of contagion within the eurozone, reminiscent of past debt crises. The spread between French and German bond yields has widened significantly, indicating investor distrust in French debt. Meanwhile, US job creation has unexpectedly slowed, reducing the likelihood of further interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.
