The U.S. Dollar (USD) declined on Monday against its major rivals, as positive economic data encouraged risk appetite and reduced demand for safe havens. Accordingly, the greenback turned to the negative side in favor of riskier assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the USD\u2019s performance against a basket of six major international currencies, is down by 0.46% to 92.60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The index has been moving today in a range between 92.54 and 93.11. After fluctuating within a tight range during the Asian and European hours, with most markets closes due to the Easter Holiday, the index turned to the negative trajectory since early U.S. hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
