Session Recap: USD broadly mixed
Indecision is the theme of the day on Tuesday as the euro failed to sustain gains versus the dollar after a promising start to the NY session, where EUR/USD rallied toward 1.3074 only to fall back to the 1.3015 zone afterward. However, the Aussie is holding onto gains versus the greenback, underpinned by gold, while the pound is among the worst performers once again, weighed by disappointing data from the UK which saw GBP/USD falling its lowest levels since June 2010. Elsewhere, crosses are mostly flat on the day while stocks trade lower in Wall Street.
