Majors on Friday: USD Grinds Higher on NFP Friday
It's US employment and the majors are in action.
Hi All,
The majors were active in trade yesterday, with the USD continuing to push its way higher. For the most part all the majors were weaker against the USD, however, the GBP bucked the trend and broke out to the upside. There seems to be progressing around life after the Brexit and the pound is starting to look bullish. It’s a volatile trade at the moment.
The AUD/USD and NZD/USD were some of the weaker pairs as poor trade data and a slump in commodity prices hurt the commodity currencies.
All eyes now turn to US unemployment and the majors will be back in the firing line.
