#FedRateCutAffectsDollarTrend A weakened dollar value occurs when the US currency loses purchasing power relative to other currencies, making imports more expensive and exports cheaper. This can happen due to various factors such as increased money supply, higher inflation, lower interest rates, or a decline in investor confidence in the US economy. As a result, the dollar's value drops on the foreign exchange market, leading to a decrease in its exchange rate with other currencies, making it less attractive to investors and potentially leading to higher prices for imported goods and services.
