Dollar firms ahead of central bank meetings, steadier stocks stall safe haven play
Full story
The dollar has been holding firm as markets look ahead to a run of central bank meetings. Traders are waiting to see what policymakers signal, and the currency has found support ahead of those gatherings. At the same time, steadier stock markets have eased the pull toward safe havens, which had been one of the dollar's recent drivers. The calmer equity mood has effectively stalled the safe haven play around the currency for now.
