    As the options are not given in the question, they are found online and are as below:

    A) The dollar depreciated against the euro.

    B) The dollar appreciated against the euro.

    C) There was no change in the dollar-euro rate because expectations adjusted.

    D) There was no change in the dollar-euro rate because real interest rates were unchanged.

    The correct option is A such that the Dollar depreciated against the Euro.
