The South African rand slowed its progression with market assessing the month-end local economic data offering further clues about the state of the South African's economy.

Fundamental News

EUR/USD

The Euro slipped to $1.1320 amid an extended rise in US Treasury yields. The US weekly Initial Jobless Claims report and the Fedspeak will be the highlights later in the day for further direction.

GBP/USD

The British Pound recovered to $1.3251 with prospects of further monetary tightening by the Bank of England could act as a tailwind for the Pound Sterling.

USD/JPY

The Japanese Yen fell sharply to $158.30 as investors dialed back their bets on an immediate, consecutive interest rate hike by the Bank of Japan.

AUD/USD

The Aussie Dollar eased against the US Dollar to 0.6949 after Australia’s trade surplus narrowed sharply to AUD 495 million in August.

USD/CAD

The Canadian Dollar posted modest gains to $1.4250 as crude recoveries offered mild support, however, the ongoing tariff and trade dispute tensions keep a cautious floor under the USD/CAD pair.

USD/ZAR

The South African Rand slowed to $16.4159 with market assessing the month-end local economic data offering further clues about the state of the South African's economy.

USD/MUR

The Dollar–Rupee rose to 48.53 (selling) this morning.
