Inflation and CPI data is scheduled for later today, though only a dramatic shift from expected figures will result in a pivot from the Federal Reserve’s pending rate hike in three weeks’ time.
In the meantime, the US dollar could maintain its dominance against the Euro, where the EUR/USD pair currently sits under parity at US$0.97.
USD is also sitting at parity with the Swiss franc (CHF).
While a few pips were shed against the Japanese Yen, the USD/JPY pair remains scarily strong for the Bank of Japan.
Changing hands at 88p, the Euro has gained 0.2% in the EUR/GBP pair in today’s trading session so far, a negligible rise given yesterday’s 1.2% drop.
GBP has also fallen against the Yen, Franc and Canadian dollar.
