On April 4, according to people familiar with the matter, US Republicans are considering creating a new tax bracket for people with incomes of $1 million or more to offset part of the cost of the tax bill, which is in stark contrast to the Republican Partys decades-long opposition to tax increases. People familiar with the matter said the new top tax rate would be between 39% and 40%. Trump administration officials and allies on Capitol Hill are beginning to draft a tax plan, hoping to pass it in the coming months. In addition, Republicans are also considering raising the top tax rate on incomes over $626,350 from the current 37% to 39.6%, which means the top tax rate will return to the level set by former President Obama.US President Trump: Britain is happy with US tariffs.Foreign central banks held U.S. Treasuries worth -$1.76 billion in the week ending March 27, compared with -$14.896 billion in the previous week.Trump trade adviser Navarro: Tariffs are to protect the American people and increase revenue.April 4th, as a new wave of tariffs upends global markets, the dollar has wiped out all of its gains since Trump won the election last November. "The dollar bear market has arrived and its roaring," said Paresh Upadhyaya, director of fixed income and currency strategy at Amundi. He added that the dollar could fall 10% this year as the United States "teeters on the brink of recession." This is in stark contrast to earlier this year, when Trumps policy plans such as tax cuts and tariffs were seen as a reason to bet on a rebound in the dollar. In February, U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessant said Trumps policies were "completely consistent" with a strong dollar, confirming the governments strong dollar stance. "We may be in the early stages of a structural sell-off in the dollar," said Ed Al-Hussainy, strategist at Columbia Threadneedle Investment.

Despite the US Dollar's decline, EUR/USD bulls surge

The US Dollar's decline has caused the EUR/USD to reach the apex of the bull cycle, which started at the end of September. The Euro has climbed from 1.0489 to 1.0507 thus far on Tuesday, up 0.12%.

 

However, since the start of the week, the US Dollar has been the main driver, and today's bid reflects little of what happened to risk appetite on Monday. Due to the unexpected expansion in the US services sector in November, many predict that the Federal Reserve will increase interest rates by a larger amount than previously predicted.

 

Following a recovery from the 104.11 bearish cycle lows in November, the DXY index, which measures the US Dollar against the US dollar, has retreated to the 105 area. As a result, the Euro declined at the start of the US session for the week as a result of a flight to safety following a decline in market optimism regarding a potential easing of COVID restrictions in China.

 

Investors' appetite for risk has increased as a result of several Chinese localities easing their COVID restrictions in what appears to be a shift toward gradual reopening as the nation approaches its fourth year of the pandemic. However, despite the partial relaxation, there are still many restrictions in place, and in some parts of the nation, new lockdowns and travel restrictions are still being enforced.
