This report analyzes the evolution of the dollar exchange rate since its peak in 2002. It examines 1) several factors that are likely to influence the dollar’s medium-term path, 2) what effects a depreciating dollar could have on the economy, and 3) how alternative policy measures that could be taken by the Federal Reserve, the Treasury, and the 112th Congress might influence the dollar’s path.
