TODAY’S FACTORS AND EVENTS
The euro was little changed versus the dollar on Tuesday as investors were wary of a looming deadline for U.S. tariffs on China, the British election and upcoming Federal Reserve and European Central Bank meetings.
The greenback was neutral against a basket of six other major currencies.
This is “reflecting limited anticipation for a change from both the Fed and ECB meetings this week as well as uncertainty about the Dec. 16 tariff deadline,” said ING analysts in a note to clients.
