These minerals are essential for advanced manufacturing, including electric vehicles, jet engines, and semiconductors, making the new measures a significant blow to global supply chains.<\/p>\n<p>Markets fear that this renewed confrontation between the world\u2019s two largest economies could ignite another trade war, undermining growth prospects and increasing volatility across financial assets. The announcement triggered a broad risk-off movement, with US <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fxstreet.com\/markets\/equities\" data-fxs-autoanchor>Equities<\/a> sliding and Treasury yields falling as investors shifted toward safe-haven assets.<\/p>\n<p>The US Dollar (USD) decline reflects growing expectations that heightened trade and political uncertainty could prompt the Federal Reserve (Fed) to adopt a more accommodative stance. According to the CME FedWatch Tool, markets are now pricing in a strong chance of rate cuts in October and December if trade tensions continue to weigh on business confidence and investment flows.<\/p>\n<p>Escalating tensions between Washington and Beijing would likely sustain volatility in the US Dollar as traders reassess global growth and inflation trajectories in the final quarter of the year.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"DXY chart\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class src   =\"http:\/\/www.fxstreet.com\/_next\/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.fxsstatic.com%2Fmiscelaneous%2Fchart-screenshot%20(54)-1760113601752-1760113601753.png&#038;w=1536&#038;q=95\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><small>US Dollar Index 4-hour chart.
