The dollar continued its decline on Tuesday, falling to its lowest in two months against the recovering Japanese yen and losing ground on other peers, as investors continued to position for a less aggressive pace of Federal Reserve interest rate hikes.

The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield fell to 2.53%, its lowest since April, in early trade on Tuesday. Wong attributed this partly to the tensions around Pelosi’s visit as well as poor economic data from China over the weekend.
