Positive developments in talks between President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy have helped ease investor jitters, although concerns remain about when the two sides will reach a deal. A U.S. administration official said the two sides were close to reaching a deal that would raise the government ’s $31.4 trillion debt ceiling for two years and limit spending on most items.
The dollar's recent rally has also been fueled by growing expectations that the Fed will have to keep interest rates higher for longer to keep inflation in check.
In addition, the US Department of Commerce said on May 26 that US consumer spending increased more than expected in April, up 0.8% in May, boosting the growth prospects of the country's economy in the second quarter. Specifically, the Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index (PCE) increased 0.4% in April, after reaching an increase of 0.1% in March.
Meanwhile, the Euro also rose 0.11% against the greenback, currently at $1.0731.
Europe's top policymakers have offered differing views on the eurozone's future inflation outlook, with European Central Bank Chief Economist Philip Lane playing down inflation concerns.
