Commerzbank: too early to talk about the end of the downtrend of the dollar

According to currency analysts Commerzbank, yesterday's strengthening of the dollar can hardly be regarded as a signal to the end of the downtrend of the U.S. currency.

Currency U.S. remains under pressure due to continued low interest rates, due to which increases its attractiveness as a funding currency transactions carry trade. Nevertheless, the growth of the euro against the dollar, perhaps a little exhausted strength, and positive data published today a report on consumer confidence in the United States may have additional pressure on the single European currency. At the time of the data, the euro / dollar traded at 1.4855.
