Fluctuations in the Dollar Exchange Rate Amid Weak Demand
The currency markets are currently experiencing notable fluctuations in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar. Recent days have witnessed a significant decline, attributed to market stagnation and subdued demand in the parallel currency market.
On Saturday, March 15, 2025, financial and economic expert Ahmed Al-Tamimi provided insights regarding these market dynamics. He indicated that the recent decrease in the dollar’s value is likely to be a temporary phenomenon. Al-Tamimi anticipates that the dollar will likely rebound in the coming days as commercial activity resumes and the Eid Al-Fitr holiday approaches.
The expert elaborated that the expected increase in foreign currency demand is primarily driven by heightened imports and an uptick in consumer spending.
It is also important to note that there was a marked decline in exchange rates last Thursday evening as local stock exchanges closed, with many stakeholders awaiting forthcoming changes in the markets.

|---|---|

As the market evolves, stakeholders will be closely monitoring these developments to adapt strategies accordingly.
