Dollar Posts First Weekly Gain Since January on Haven Demand

US Dollar Can’t Shake Risks

The dollar posted its first weekly gain since early January, buoyed by haven demand amid broader market turmoil.

The dollar closed 0.2% higher for the week, even after paring gains Friday. The advance halted a three-week drop fueled by speculation that the Trump administration’s policy shifts would spur foreign investors to dial back exposure to US assets.
