EUR/USD in 3-day peaks
Spot has regained the 1.0900 handle for the first since Monday, extending further its bounce off recent lows in the vicinity of 1.0820. The now increasing selling mood around the US dollar appears as the main driver behind the up move, all ahead today’s publications in the US economy.
