The US dollar started to gain ground yesterday (July 28) after the US and the European Union (EU) reached a trade deal, ahead of this week's Federal Reserve meeting.
US President Donald Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced the deal in Scotland over the weekend, with an agreement to impose a 15% import tariff on EU goods, half the level they had threatened to impose early next month.
Mr Trump added that the EU also plans to invest about $600 billion in the US and significantly increase purchases of US energy and military equipment.
The pact is similar to one reached with Tokyo negotiators last week, under which Japan would invest about $550 billion in the United States and face 15 percent tariffs on cars and other imports.
As concerns about the economic fallout from punitive tariffs ease, investor attention is turning to key economic data and central bank meetings in the coming days, especially those of the US Federal Reserve.
