The US dollar came out swinging against GBP and EUR overnight but after brief support it has slipped back slightly below where it started the day.
Overall it has been a stable period for the dollar, however, returning to its mid-August position after a tumultuous few weeks for foreign policy and the pandemic.
The big data event of the week is this afternoon at 1.30pm BST with inflation, currently running at over 5% year-on-year. That will be followed 48 hours later by retail sales for August.
