Euro at its Highest Level in 4 Months

The euro rose during the European morning, hitting its highest level in four months after increasing demand with Federal Reserve Governor Lil Brainard hinted that the US needed an easier monetary policy.

EUR/USD rose 0.1% to 1.1408, after reaching its highest level since March 10 at 1.1423 earlier in the session. EUR/GBP was down 0.2% to 0.9060 and stronger inflation figures gave some support GBP.
