The dollar was steady against safe-haven currencies including the Japanese yen and Swiss franc on Tuesday after US President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause on new tariffs on many trading partners, but increased duties on Chinese goods.

US President Trump said he had granted a 90-day pause on the 10% reciprocal tariff but would also increase the tariff on China to 125%, effective immediately.

In a post on the social network Truth, the US President announced that he would immediately raise tariffs on China to 125%. He also said that more than 75 countries have contacted US representatives to negotiate solutions to the issues being discussed regarding trade, tariffs, etc. "And these countries have not retaliated against the US in any way, I have allowed a 90-day suspension of full reciprocal tariffs and the reciprocal tariffs will be reduced during this time to a base rate of 10%. The decision is effective immediately," Mr. Trump wrote.

The dollar initially weakened against other currencies in early trading after the Trump administration’s “reciprocal” tariffs on dozens of countries took effect on April 9, including a 104% tariff on Chinese goods.

China quickly retaliated with 84% tariffs on US goods from today, April 10, while EU countries also approved the bloc's first countermeasures to the US tariff move on April 9.

“The big moves in the market today, especially in stocks, are taking this news very well. But I think the 90-day pause just adds to the volatility during that 90 days,” said Amarjit Sahota, managing director at Klarity FX in San Francisco.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note pared gains after the Treasury Department saw strong demand for its $39 billion bond sale on April 9. The yield on the benchmark 10-year note rose 13.6 basis points to 4.392%. The greenback rose 1.2% against the safe-haven yen to 148.80, reversing losses from earlier in the session. The greenback also rose 1.14% against the Swiss franc to 0.8569 franc.

“The market is reacting positively to this delay, but is it really sustainable? And what does it mean for the greenback?” Sahota added.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reiterated in a Fox News interview that the US still has a policy to support the USD.

Meanwhile, the euro rose 0.11% to $1.09685, approaching last week's peak of $1.1147. The DXY index recovered from an early session decline.

According to Reuters , the People's Bank of China will not allow the yuan to fall sharply and has asked major state-owned banks to reduce their purchases of US dollars.
