The greenback, tracked by the US Dollar Index, is prolonging its weekly upside and testing session tops near 93.40.
US Dollar boosted by data
It
was all the way up for USD after hitting multi-month lows near 91.90 on
Tuesday, managing to regain both the 92.00 and 93.00 marks on better
sentiment and positive results from the US docket.
In fact,
today’s ISM Non-manufacturing, Makit’s Services PMI and Trade Balance
have all surpassed expectations, while on the not-so-bright note, the
ADP Employment Change showed the US private sector has created less jobs
than expected during April, although the greenback quickly shrugged off
the results.
