The dollar strengthens amid growing fears of China about COVID

The week began with a rapid growth of the U.S. dollar. The positive dynamics of the currency occurred due to purchases of protective assets, as investors' concerns after a spike in cases of COVID-19 forced officials to tighten restrictions. 

According to Reuters, an easing of restrictive measures is already unlikely in the near future because of the growing number of cases.

Carol Kong, a strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, said the prospects for a Chinese market without Covid remain a key source of volatility today.
