NEW YORK (AP) - A hidden force is quietly pushing up costs for everything from your summer vacation to your weekly grocery bills: a weaker U.S. dollar.
The dollar has fallen about 10% against other major currencies since President Donald Trump returned to the White House, a pullback potentially playing a role in Americans' concerns about affordability. “

A weak dollar can help but also harm

The U.S. dollar has dropped about 10% against a basket of other major currencies since early 2025. That shift is starting to show up in everyday costs: A weaker dollar means Americans get less when traveling abroad and may pay more for imported goods like food, fuel and electronics. Economists say the effect on prices is usually modest, but it can add up, particularly when stacked on other factors, including inflation, tariffs and a spike in fuel costs due to the Iran war. President Donald Trump has openly supported a weaker dollar, arguing it helps American industry, and some executives agree, saying it's boosted overseas business.

Trump wants a weaker dollar:
• Your dollar buys less (imports pricier!).
• YOU pay the tariffs.
• "China-level" US manufacturing is unrealistic.
• HYPOCRISY: He touts his luxury, but weakens your buying power.
• US travel abroad gets expensive.
Generations built US as global linchpin. Don't let policies "put us in dump" like isolated regimes. https://tinyurl.com/22devjtv
