The Uncertainty of Dollar's Path during a Recession

During a recession, the outcome for the US dollar is not clear-cut. If the recession is accompanied by credit deleveraging, the dollar tends to appreciate due to the compression of the system. However, if a recession occurs without significant credit deleveraging, other factors like Fed policy and interest rate differentials play a role. The dollar's direction during a recession depends on the shape the recession takes and the specific circumstances at play.
