United States

Make that three in a row! The Greenback squashed its major counterparts in yesterday's trading as risk aversion continued to prowl the markets. However, its strength seemed to fade as the yen, Aussie, and franc put up a strong fight during the European and US session. More...

Euro Zone

Sheesh, not again! The euro recovered some its losses against the dollar in the early trading sessions, but the disappointing economic reports from the euro zone sent the euro bouncing down the charts. After rallying to an intraday high of 1.2933, EURUSD plunged back to close at 1.2827. More...

United Kingdom

New Zealand

Fresh news! Get 'em while they're hot! A few hours ago New Zealand released the retail sales figures for June, which revealed a 0.9% rise from May's 0.4% upsurge. Core retail sales, too, made the Kiwi bulls happy after it increased by 1.5% after declining by 0.2% last May. Hmm, will this help ease the Kiwi's losses yesterday? More...

Switzerland
