A lot, if not most, of the movements on currency markets right now is actually the US Dollar getting extremely strong. Pretty much all currencies are recording lows against the Dollar right now, as mentioned in the article.

Also note that the article does not use the word 'collapse', which is click-baity editing by the poster.

The headline was changed from the original, not an uncommon practice by Reuters.
