The Euro gained as receding Fed hike bets weigh on the US Dollar.

Fundamental News

EUR/USD

The Euro gained few pips to $1.1540 as receding Fed hike bets weigh on the US Dollar, while geopolitical risks cap upside for the EUR/USD pair.

GBP/USD

The British Pound stayed broadly supported near $1.35 after UK GDP rose 0.4% in June, reinforcing expectations that the Bank of England could still hike rates later this year.

USD/JPY

The Japanese Yen held steady around $159.30 as expectations of further BoJ tightening supported the currency and contributed to capping spot prices.

AUD/USD

The Australian Dollar got a slight boost at $0.7060 after assistant Governor Kent said further hikes remain possible if inflation risks re-emerge.

USD/CAD

The USD/CAD pair traded largely flat around $1.3920, caught between a softer USD following weaker-than-expected U.S. inflation data and falling oil prices weighing on the commodity-linked Loonie.

USD/ZAR

The South African rand hovered at $16.2050 on the last trading session as investors assessed the weaker-than-expected domestic mining production data.

USD/MUR

The Dollar–Rupee weakened slightly to 47.82 (selling) this morning.
