The U.S. dollar weakened against most major currencies during Tuesday’s trading session as investors adjusted expectations regarding future Federal Reserve interest rate decisions.

Currency markets reacted after recent economic indicators pointed to moderating inflation, increasing speculation that policymakers could consider easing monetary policy later this year.

The euro and British pound both gained ground against the dollar, while several Asian currencies also strengthened during the session.

Lower Treasury yields added pressure on the greenback as investors diversified into international assets and alternative investment opportunities.
