USD slowed its rise in anticipation of new economic data

The dollar recorded greater losses on Friday when several weak report from the US provoked misgivings that the Fed may slow the interest rates increase. The greenback took a breather in the early morning yesterday amid hopes that the data on personal spending and business activity will return positive sentiment among investors.
On Friday the euro recorded solid gains against the dollar, but failed to hold to the end of the day. The greenback came under pressure after several weaker reports about the US economy, including that of gross domestic product, and this hesitated the investors.
Analysts believe that the dollar may return to profits this week, if supported by the upcoming macroeconomic news from the US. Later today will be presented the data of ISM regarding the manufacturing activity and with highest interest is expected the report on the change in non-agricultural employment, which will be published on Friday.
Another important event of the week will be associated with the meeting of the Bank of Japan, which will also be held on Friday. Set by the institution aims for growth in inflation does not justify in any way and the market participants expect to see a further expansion of the incentives. Such attitudes had previous meetings of the central bank, but for the moment the institution to refrain from this move.
