Institutional investors are showing heightened interest in hedging against potential losses from a weakening US dollar, reaching a five-year peak according to BlockBeats data. This surge is attributed to U.S. President Trump’s imposing tariffs, which may undermine America’s economic dominance and impact the dollar’s strength. The three-month risk reversal index, a key indicator of market sentiment, has reached its lowest level since March 2020, plummeting below zero for the first time in five years. This signifies a growing demand for bearish options tied to dollar depreciation against 12 major currencies, while bullish options are attracting less attention as the market anticipates further weakening.
