Key Headline:


USD strengthens on the back of economic data highlighting sustained momentum in the economy.


Recap

The USD regained ground on Tuesday, supported by US job openings hitting a six-month high and stronger-than-expected ISM services data, signalling robust economic growth. The elevated prices paid component of the ISM report reignited inflation concerns, prompting markets to push the expected timing of the first Fed rate cut to July. Meanwhile, EU CPI figures met expectations, rising to 2.4% earlier in the day.
