FXStreet (Edinburgh) – The US Dollar Index, which gauges the greenback vs. its main rivals, is extending the upside momentum above the 96.00 mark.
DXY stronger on Greek woes
Yesterday’s solid win of the ‘No’ vote in the Greek referendum has boosted the demand for the safe haven USD, which is consolidating the break above the 96.00 handle amidst a risk-aversion context.
Data wise in the US, the services sector will take centre stage, as the ISM Non Manufacturing and Markit’s PMI will be published ahead of the Fed’s Labour Market Conditions Index.
