The dollar is having its worst day in a month after the Federal Reserve left its benchmark interest rate unchanged and put forward a more aggressive forecast for monetary easing in 2024.
A Bloomberg benchmark of the dollar sank 0.8% for its biggest one-day drop since November. All the greenback’s Group-of-10 peers strengthened against the dollar with the Norwegian krone, Japanese yen, Swedish krona, as well as Australian and New Zealand dollars gaining more than 1%.
