The US dollar remained backed after on Wednesday, the US National Association of Realtors told that its pending home sales soared by 5.5% the previous month, thus more than doubling expectations for a soar of 2.4%.
The data arose just a day after the US Consumer Board told that its consumer confidence index inched up to an almost 17-year peak of 125.6 in March from 116.1 last month, which is far above hopes for an outcome of 114.
