Today's Chart of the Day, from YCharts, highlights the market share of the US dollar.
 
The U.S. dollar remains the dominant global reserve currency. It accounts for the greatest percentage of all reserves, far surpassing the euro, yen, and other currencies combined. This strong presence underscores the dollar’s stability and continued role as the backbone of international finance.
 
While other currencies play a supporting role, the dollar’s widespread acceptance and trust among central banks provide reassurance that it remains secure and resilient in the global economy.
