# Euro Slips as Dollar Demand Rises

> The euro fell below $1.12 as a global technology-stock sell-off prompted demand for the safe-haven dollar. Investors also assessed the possibility of an ECB rate increase in December, with eurozone inflation reported at 4% in October, a three-year high driven mainly by higher energy costs.

## Why it matters
