The U.S. dollar came back from Friday's depths and erased some of its losses against its major peers.
Fundamental News

EUR/USD
The Euro erased nearly all of Friday's gains to trade at $1.1630 on the back of political woes in France where PM Bayrou's government risks collapse as it faces a vote of confidence over austerity budget.

GBP/USD
The Pound Sterling pared gains to settle around $1.3457 ahead of Durable Goods Orders data from the U.S., due later today.

USD/JPY
The Japanese Yen fell to 147.77 against the greenback amid broad USD strength and after Japan's Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato said that he was alarmed over FX moves, including those driven by speculators.

AUD/USD
The Australian dollar declined to $0.6477 as U.S. President Donald Trump warned that he may impose a 200% tariff on Chinese goods if China refuses to supply magnets to the United States.

USD/CAD
The Canadian dollar struggled at 1.3855 against its U.S. counterpart as Oil prices edged down on Tuesday after surging nearly 2% in the previous session, as traders kept a close watch on developments in the Russia-Ukraine conflict for the potential impact on fuel supplies from the region.

USD/ZAR
The South African rand retreated from nine-month highs of 17.43 to trade at 17.60 against the U.S. dollar as investors await domestic producer inflation data on Thursday, and private sector credit and trade balance data on Friday.

USD/MUR
The dollar-rupee was up to 46.42 (selling) this morning.
