Vanishing dollar bill
The US Dollar slumped as the regional banking crisis rattled markets.
  • The US dollar has slipped 2% over five trading days as the banking crisis rattles investors.
  • The collapse of SVB and Signature Bank may threaten the greenback's haven status, one analyst said.
  • Traders are unsure whether the Federal Reserve will keep raising interest rates or ease off for now.

The dollar extended its losing streak Wednesday after the Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 25 basis points. Traders had expected the move, but it still fueled uncertainty about the outlook for rates and the US economy as the regional-banking crisis continues to rattle markets.
