The main driver of this is the collapse of the Silicon Valley Bank, a potential banking crisis and the need to still deal with inflation.
Cutting interest rates would help the banking sector; however, the FED has chosen to increase interest rates rather than raise more concern about the state of the banking system and to curb rising inflation.
Volatility
With the last two weeks being extremely volatile on the back of the banking crisis, trying to predict the outlook during these current times is proving to be very difficult.
Since the beginning of the year, the exchange rate has moved nearly 4% on €250,000, which is a difference of nearly $10,000.

What to watch out for
The US government cannot underwrite all banks. The US Dollar could collapse very quickly.
There is a stark difference between how the FED and ECB fight inflation. This is causing the Euro to strengthen.
The Ukraine/Russia war. Should we see any end to the war, this would ultimately be positive for the Euro and still one to watch.
Despite being on a downward trend, we are still at the highest levels in 20 years. Historically it does not stay at these levels for long.
