Fundamental News

EUR/USD

The Euro traded firm around $1.1655 as markets weighed stronger U.S. inflation data against expectations of a September ECB hike.

GBP/USD

The Pound Sterling languished below $1.3590 as markets opt to wait for Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's scheduled speech at the Jackson Hole Symposium on Friday.

USD/JPY

The Japanese Yen was softer at 159.34 versus the greenback amid concerns about Japan's worsening fiscal condition. 

AUD/USD

The Australian Dollar held strong at $0.7185, driven by heightened expectations of an upcoming RBA interest rate hike, catalyzed by a hotter-than-expected July inflation report that signaled persistent price pressures.

USD/CAD

The Canadian Dollar edged lower to $1.3880, following hotter than expected US inflation which boosted expectations of a FED rate hike.

USD/ZAR

The South African Rand was steady at $15.94 supported by firm commodity prices.

USD/MUR

The Dollar–Rupee climbed to 47.52 (selling) this morning.
