WHAT THIS MEANS

Despite geopolitical tensions including Iran conflict, the US dollar remains stable rather than strengthening, as Asian and European central bank policies and loss of geopolitical confidence limit dollar appreciation. Trump's policies are failing to provide the traditional safe-haven boost to the currency.
