Iranian rial hits all-time low as economy slides
Original: Iranian rial hits all-time low as economy continues free fall
Iran's currency, the rial, has fallen to an all-time low against the US dollar, underlining what observers describe as a continuing free fall in the country's economy. The plunge reflects mounting pressure from sanctions, inflation and eroding confidence among Iranians, who are increasingly trading savings into foreign currency or gold. Commentators warn the collapse is deepening hardship for ordinary households as prices for basic goods keep climbing.
Why now: The currency's record low signals a sharp deterioration in Iran's economic crisis, drawing fresh attention to sanctions and inflation.
