US dollar stranglehold on global FX sets stage for euro parity - Reuters Poll
The U.S. dollar will tighten its stranglehold over global currency markets with little standing in the way of its remarkable run, and a significant number of foreign exchange forecasters polled by Reuters expect it to rise to parity with the euro in 2025. While forecasters in Reuters polls — long proponents of a weaker dollar — were mostly off the mark in their median point-forecasts through last year, additional questions, particularly on risks to those estimates, captured the currency's relentless ascent. A signal from the U.S. Federal Reserve in December that it is in no hurry to cut interest rates further, along with inflation fears rooted in President-elect Donald Trump's proposed tariff and tax policies, only helped to cement those gains.

AT&T will offer bill credits for outages to 'make it right' with customers
U.S. telecom giant AT&T said on Wednesday it would offer bill credits for network outages as part of a new initiative to attract customers, after the industry experienced several significant disruptions in 2024. In February last year, AT&T faced a nationwide wireless service disruption that lasted more than 12 hours, blocking over 92 million calls and preventing over 25,000 attempts to contact the 911 emergency call line. Under AT&T's latest initiative, AT&T Guarantee, fiber users who experience outages of 20 minutes or more, and wireless customers who face disruptions of 60 minutes or more of a covered outage, will automatically receive a bill credit equivalent to a full day of service.
