Fundamental News

The Euro is under pressure at $1.1539 from rising energy prices, as markets favor economies benefiting from positive energy supply shocks over those facing negative ones, like the euro.

GBP/USD

The Pound Sterling nosedived to $1.3312 amid slower UK growth and rising inflation with escalating Middle East tensions.

USD/JPY

The Japanese Yen edged lower to 159.56 against the greenback on global tensions, though prospects of Bank of Japan tightening and potential intervention are capping declines.

AUD/USD

The Australian Dollar crawled lower to $0.6967 with geopolitical tensions supporting the U.S Dollar. 

USD/CAD

The Canadian Dollar held firm to 1.3733 versus the U.S dollar as market turned more hawkish on the Bank of Canada, with growing bets on rate hikes driven by energy inflation.

USD/ZAR

The South African Rand was softer at $17.1864 weighed down by higher oil prices and safe-haven demand for the U.S Dollar.

USD/MUR

The Dollar-Rupee climbed to 47.03 (selling) this morning.
