Upbeat Beige Book Fails to Turn Dollar Positive
Today’s sample of Forex Analysis from ForexHound.com
The U.S. Dollar finished lower after a choppy trading session. Even upbeat Beige Book data failed to stimulate buying interest in the Dollar.

The Dollar could not hold its earlier strength and broke sharply lower ahead of the New York opening before mounting a strong recovery in the Cash Dollar Index to 77.03. Increased demand for higher yielding assets was the theme today.
