U.S. Dollar Gains in Forex Trading

Grrenback higher as risk aversion sets in

The U.S. dollar is gaining in forex trading against a number of currencies today. U.S. dollar is mainly higher, especially against riskier currencies like the Aussie and the euro.

Last week, there was a great deal of optimism regarding the global economy, and that prompted some risk appetite. However, after having a long weekend to consider how things stand with the economy, forex traders are no longer so certain.

Risk aversion is back, and the U.S. dollar is heading higher as a result. Indeed, the only currency that is not falling against the U.S. dollar is the Japanese yen, which continues to appreciate.
