Analysis of the past day

On Thursday, the US currency accelerated growth against a basket of competitors. The weakness of the euro, which was associated with several factors, provided the main support for the American dollar. Thus, the euro intensified the decline on the overall growth of the British pound, which received support from a statement by the British Prime Minister and positive retail sales data in the UK. It is also worth noting the general decline of the safe haven assets, which also negatively affected the euro.

Stock indices throughout the day traded with restraint, while maintaining negative sentiment on trading risks. (Nikkei 225 -1.29; DAX-0.50; FTSE 100 -1.00; Dow 30 +0.10)

The dollar index, despite the risks, continued to grow due to a decrease of the safe haven assets. At the end of the day, he updated the high at 98.20, maintaining an upward dynamics, but limiting himself to a significant overbought and lower yield on the US government bonds.
