Here’s a quick update on Janet Yellen and dollar-related warnings.
- What’s happening: Yellen has repeatedly stated that the U.S. will respond strongly to currency manipulation by other countries, while stressing the dollar’s continued status as the world’s primary reserve currency.

- Relevance to the dollar: She has argued that no other currency currently rivals the dollar in global use, which supports the case for the dollar remaining dominant even as discussions about de-dollarisation continue in some circles. [cite ][cite ]
