Euro slides to 20-year low against the dollar as recession fears build (CNBC)

The euro fell to its lowest level in two decades on Tuesday, sliding more than 1%.

All of these factors have converged to hit the euro hard. However, growing fears of a recession may limit the central bank's capacity to tighten monetary policy. Natural gas prices in Europe on Monday extended their relentless rise, climbing to highs not seen since early March as planned strikes in Norway added to market woes about Russian supply cuts. The currency of the euro zone has lost over 9% of its value against the dollar since the start of the year. Euro zone inflation hit a record 8.6% in June, prompting the European Central Bank to give markets advance notice of its intention to hike interest rates for the first time in 11 years at its July meeting. The euro fell to its lowest level in two decades on Tuesday as fears of a recession in the euro zone ramped up, with gas prices soaring and the Ukraine war showing no signs of abating.
