Dollar Dips Amidst US Tariff Uncertainty

Peruvian Currency Sees Slight Setback as Global Markets Watch Trade Tensions

This represents a 0.19% decrease from its previous valuation, reflecting ongoing market fluctuations. Despite President **Donald Trump**’s pronouncements on trade, the U.S. dollar’s performance against other major currencies has remained relatively stable, showing only marginal movement.

Local Exchange Rates

For those looking to exchange currency locally, exchange houses are buying the dollar at approximately S/ 3.56 and selling it at S/ 3.57 on average. These rates are subject to change based on real-time market dynamics.

Global Economic Watch

The international financial landscape remains on edge as discussions around potential U.S. tariffs continue. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) recently projected that global growth could be dampened by increased trade restrictions, a factor contributing to investor caution and currency volatility.
