The first quarter of 2008 just cleared on Mar-31 but it was not until last week that the Fed finally finished tallying the data and publish its report of the performance of the USD. On a trade-weighted basis, the USD declined 4%, a figure which accounts for a whopping 11% decline against the YEN and an 8% decline as per EUR. According to the Federal Bank Reserve's analysis, Jan was kind to the USD if we compare it to other months of course as traders remained not-so-sure as to how the credit crisis would affect the United States economy. An outpouring of negative data in the next month or so sent the USD spiraling downward, although it recovered at the end of Mar, as the Federal Bank Reserve moved to build liquidity in the markets. The Federal Bank Reserve also noted that it did not intervene in currency markets during the Q1 firmly putting aside the rumors to the contrary, and Forbes reports:
"There had been intermittent discussion in the markets of a coordinated foreign exchange intervention by the G-3 central banks, but the Fed report confirmed officially what markets already realized."
