Sanctions on Iran undermine major currencies

The euro and British pound rose to their highest levels in several months, while the Canadian dollar remained steady following threats of new tariffs on Canadian goods. Bitcoin also increased by 1%, and US Treasury yields climbed after the Treasury Department announced that it may use part of its reserves to buy long-term bonds to help reduce borrowing costs.
