Dollar Regains Positions After Mixed News

After yesterday’s EUR/USD high peaks dollar is showing a good trend today moving the EUR/USD pair back to below 1.4200 levels hitting bottom 1.4150 mark.

Monthly retails sales report […]

Employment Situation in U.S. Improving

Dollar continues its volatile market dance with Euro currency undecided whether to go south back to 1.4000 or break through to 1.4500. Recent bad fundamental news made positive effect on dollar, most probably because of financial institutions cashing out of stock markets. But today this “bad news — strong dollar” trend was broken.
