USD

The US dollar continued its slide yesterday despite the
better than expected job data which showed that the number or people filing for
jobless claims fell by 25,000 last week.

The US dollar continued to be under pressure following Wednesday
minutes from the Federal Reserve where the central bank dampened expectations
of an interest hike occurring any time soon.
