The euro rose on Monday, supported by news of a possible summit between US President Joe Biden and Russian President Vladimir Putin to discuss the crisis in Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Details remain unclear, but French President Emmanuel Macron’s office said the two leaders had agreed in principle to hold a summit on “security and strategic stability in Europe”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The White House said in a statement that Biden accepted the meeting “in principle” but only “in the event that an invasion does not occur.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The euro rose 0.35 percent to $1.1362, after falling slightly in early trading. The Australian dollar rose 0.55 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the yen gave up most of its gains in early trading, to trade at 114.97 yen to the dollar. Like the Swiss franc, the yen, which is considered a safe haven of value, has benefited from the tension caused by Russia’s build-up of troops on Ukraine’s border.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The price of the pound sterling rose 0.19% to $1.3623 before the PMI data, which will give an indication of the impact of the spread of the mutated Omicron from the Coronavirus on the British economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The dollar index, which measures its value against six major currencies, fell 0.28%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The cryptocurrency Bitcoin rebounded somewhat after falling at the weekend, increasing 2.3 percent to about $39,000. And earlier on Monday, it fell to its lowest level in two weeks, recording $38,210.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
