Overview of the basic drivers: Stock indices and oil.

European stock indices show a positive trend, while the British FTSE 100 grew by about 0.05%, which is not enough to influence the movement of the pound. The main stock indices of the Eurozone – DAX and CAC 40, increased by an average of 0.60%, thereby exerting some pressure on the single currency. See Quotations.

Oil prices fell slightly below zero marks, losing about -0.12% of positions, but this decrease is not enough to put pressure on commodity currencies against the US dollar. Also, see Oil (current news).
