XE Market Analysis: Europe – Apr 16, 2019

The main currencies have continued to see little directional bias for the most part, which has been seen against backdrop of buoyant global stock markets. The narrow trade-weighted USD index is near flat on the day so far, at 96.92, continuing a consolidation of declines seen last week. In equity markets, while the main U.S. indices turned lower yesterday, the S&P 500 remains within 1% of record highs, while India’s NSE index rallied to a record high today.
