WHAT YOU NEED KNOW ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 19 IS AS FOLLOWS:
Early on Monday, major currency pairings trade close to the closing levels of the previous week. The US markets will be closed on Presidents' Day, and there won't be any high-impact data releases on the economic calendar. The Monthly Report of the Bundesbank of Germany is expected to be released during European trading hours.
Early on Friday morning in the American trading day, the US Dollar gained momentum following the release of data by the Bureau of Labor Statistics indicating that the January increase in the Producer Price Index (PPI) was faster than anticipated. But week-end flows and profit-taking made it hard for the USD to keep beating its competitors before the weekend. Despite ending the previous week in positive territory, the USD Index begins Monday's trading day somewhat lower but still maintains a comfortable level above 104.00. In the meantime, the yield on the benchmark 10-year US Treasury note increased by 2.5% to close at 4.3%, the highest level since November.
