Morgan Stanley predicts the U.S. dollar’s recent rally will fade as interest-rate gaps between the U.S. and Europe narrow, undermining its safe-haven appeal. The dollar surged after U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran in late February, bolstered by its status as the global energy trade currency amid geopolitical turmoil. Analysts warn escalating Iran conflict will stifle global growth, reducing demand for the greenback despite its initial haven-driven gains. Missile strikes on Tel Aviv (March 24) intensified market volatility, but Morgan Stanley argues the dollar’s strength is temporary without sustained rate support. The firm expects Europe’s potential rate cuts to outpace the U.S., further eroding the dollar’s yield advantage and accelerating its decline.

The greenback, which has strengthened since the US and Israel attacked Israel on Feb. 28, is benefiting from being a safe haven and the currency of the world’s top energy producer.
