        "content": "<p>Editor KOMPAS.com - The Indonesian rupiah and Indian rupee came under\nrenewed pressure on Wednesday trading as the US dollar strengthened amid\nunresolved tensions with Iran. The exchange rate of the US dollar was\naround Rp 17,701 and 96.81 rupees per US dollar. Rising energy prices\nand growing global uncertainty have driven investors back to\ndollar-denominated safe-haven assets. That pressure has also pushed the\nrupiah and rupee to new all-time lows. Global markets are now worried\nthat higher energy prices will force central banks to keep policy rates\nhigher for longer. That has spurred global bond selling. The yield on\nthe US 30-year government bond even rose to its highest level since\n2007. US President Donald Trump previously said the US may need to\nstrike Iran again. Yet he also said Tehran is beginning to seek a deal\nto end the war. The conflict has shaken the global financial markets and\ndriven energy prices sharply higher. The British pound traded at around\n1.34 US dollars, not far from six-week lows. Meanwhile, the Australian\ndollar fell to around 0.7105 dollars and the New Zealand dollar to\n0.5834 dollars. Both currencies are often seen as indicators of global\nrisk sentiment and are now approaching five-week lows. Against a basket\nof major currencies, the US dollar index stood at 99.306.<\/p>",
