JAKARTA - Financial Market Observer and Commodity Ariston Tjendra said that the movement of the rupiah has the potential to weaken against the United States (US) dollar on Monday, July 7.
Ariston said that the movement of the rupiah exchange rate has the potential to weaken against the US dollar after last weekend, President Trump warned about the implementation of new tariffs to countries that have not negotiated with the US.
"The high US rate will be a scourge for trade and the global economy. For countries where the traditional US exporter market will find it difficult to find new markets," he told VOI, Monday, July 7.
In addition, Ariston said that from abroad, tensions in the Middle East returned to high after Israel carried out another attack on Yemen and this also increased market reluctance to enter risky assets.
