Cryptocurrencies are going down... What may signal a recovery?
Evergreen buck inches down to 2-1/2 week minimum
On Monday, the evergreen buck slumped to a two-and-a-half week minimum because market participants pulled back ahead of the Fed’s meeting a bit later in the week.
The major US financial institution is anticipated to keep rates intact at its latest policy gathering on Wednesday, although its update on rate estimates is going to be closely watched.
Measuring the purchasing power of the key US currency versus its primary peers the USD index went down by 0.1% ending up with 95.958.
Recent downbeat economic data could result in loosening monetary policy. The major US bank has told it’s going to be patient and review data before lifting rates in the nearer future.

Versus the safe-haven Japanese yen, the evergreen buck inched up. As a matter of fact, the currency pair USD/JPY rallied by about 0.1% coming up with 111.57.
As for the UK pound, it went down due to the fact British Prime Minister Theresa May is struggling to push her Brexit bill through the country’s parliament for the third time, even as experts expect her to fail once again.
