Analysis of the past day

Trading on Wednesday took place under optimistic moods, which were limited to waiting for the publication of the US Federal Reserve meeting minutes. On positive sentiment, support was received by commodity currencies, which were also limited by restraint in the US dollar.

The stock markets traded in different directions, despite the predominant growth. The reason for such an ambiguous dynamic continues to be geopolitical risks around the US-China trade relations (Nikkei 225-0.52 DAX -0.30; FTSE 100 +1.40; Dow 30 +1.30).

The US dollar index on the day closes the day with restrained growth against a basket of competitors. The reason for the update of the maximum of the American day was the optimistic data on the number of people employed in the United States. But weak data on real estate sales in the United States and the expectation of negative signals from the Fed led the American to correct.
