JUNE DOLLAR INDEX (electronic)
(5/15): The U.S. dollar traded 0.1 percent from its strongest this year versus its Australian peer as Asian stocks extended a global equity rout and ahead of the release of minutes from the Federal Reserve’s April meeting, Bloomberg News reported. Retail sales rose in April at the slowest pace of the year as Americans took a break from a shopping spree induced by unseasonably warm weather in prior months and an earlier Easter holiday. The 0.1 percent gain followed a 0.7 percent increase in March, Commerce Department figures showed today in Washington.

JUNE DOLLAR INDEX (electronic)

Wholesale prices in the U.S. fell in April for the first time in four months, led by a decline in fuel costs that signals inflation may cool.

JUNE DOLLAR INDEX (electronic)
(5/10): The dollar edged higher on Thursday on a smattering of positive news. Claims for unemployment benefits declined last week to the lowest level in a month, easing concern that the U.S. labor market is faltering. First-time claims dropped by 1,000 to 367,000 in the period ended May 5, the Labor Department said today in Washington. Other reports showed that a gauge of consumer confidence declined to a three-month low, and the trade deficit widened on rising demand for imports from oil to autos.
