On Thursday, the U.S. dollar experienced volatility following a federal appeals court's reinstatement of President Donald Trump's tariffs, prompting mixed reactions from the market. Investors prepared for legal battles over trade policy.

Forex experts noted that while the ruling seemed narrow, the broader concern lay in the lack of clarity surrounding U.S. trade strategies. The uncertainty has cast a shadow on the dollar's appeal to foreign investors.
