For the first time in history, the euro has reversed the US dollar's interest rate hike, marking the decline of the US dollar's hegemony and the beginning of the era of world currency diversification
The US dollar will not dare to raise interest rates, inflation rate hits a record high, leverage rate reaches 130%+, the world's multipolar currencies challenge the US dollar hegemony, the US dollar will not be able to reap the world, a large amount of funds will flow out of the United States, and virtual currency will usher in a black swan
Amid the ups and downs of global financial markets, the exchange rate movements between the euro and the US dollar have always attracted much attention. Recently, the results of the European Central Bank's monetary policy meeting are eye-catching - for the first time, the euro exchange rate has risen significantly against the backdrop of a U.S. dollar interest rate hike. This historic event not only symbolizes the stability of the euro, but also heralds the hegemony of the U.S. dollar. decline, and the beginning of the era of world currency diversification.
In June, the European Central Bank decided to raise all three key interest rates by 50 basis points, the first rate hike since 2011. At the same time, the US dollar index continued to rise due to market expectations of the Fed's rate hike. However, to the market's surprise, the euro exchange rate did not fall under pressure, but instead suddenly jumped, with the increase against the US dollar exceeding 1%. This rare phenomenon undoubtedly added confidence to the future status of the euro and brought new thinking to the global financial market.
For a long time, the US dollar has enjoyed a high international reputation and influence by virtue of its status as the world's main reserve currency and settlement currency. However, with the continuous development of the global economy and the strengthening of the multipolar trend, the hegemony of the US dollar is facing unprecedented challenges.
First, the United States' own economic and political problems continue to emerge. Problems such as high debt, high inflation, and political division have made the US economy face huge uncertainties and weakened the attractiveness of the US dollar as a global reserve currency. Secondly, other countries and regions are increasingly resisting and responding to the hegemony of the US dollar. Countries such as Europe and China have introduced their own monetary policies and financial reforms to reduce their dependence on and constraints on the US dollar. In addition, the development of emerging financial forms such as digital currencies has also brought new changes to the global monetary system.
The euro's reversal is not accidental, it reflects the profound changes taking place in the global monetary system. With the continuous development of the global economy and the strengthening of the multipolar trend, the world monetary system is gradually changing from a single system to a diversified system.
The ECB's decision to raise interest rates not only lays the foundation for the stability of the euro, but also provides a reference for the monetary policies of other countries and regions. In the future, we are expected to see more countries and regions launch their own monetary policies and financial reforms to cope with the uncertainties and challenges of the global economy.
Recently, the data on the US dollar leverage ratio also provides us with evidence that the US dollar will no longer raise interest rates. According to data from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the total debt of the United States has reached an astonishing 133.5% of GDP, and the inflation rate has also hit a 30-year high. These data show that the leverage ratio of the US economy is already very high, and further interest rate hikes may cause greater economic risks and social unrest. Therefore, from an economic perspective, the room for the US dollar to continue to raise interest rates is already very limited.
In summary, the euro's reversal marks the decline of the dollar's hegemony and the beginning of the era of world currency diversification. In the future, we are expected to see more countries and regions launch their own monetary policies and financial reforms to cope with the uncertainties and challenges of the global economy. At the same time, we also need to pay attention to changes in the global financial market to make more wise investment decisions.
