The EUR/USD pair found some support near 1.0920 region and swung back into the recovery mode, now wavering near fresh session highs.
EUR/USD bounces-off more than 3-week lows
Currently, EUR/USD trades modestly flat at 1.0935, hovering close to fresh session highs reached at 1.0939 last minutes. The main currency pair regained momentum and made another recovery attempt as a renewed risk-aversion wave gripped the Asian markets and boosted the safe-haven bids for the euro.
Further, the sudden buying interest around the EUR/USD pair can be also attributed the broad based US dollar retreat, as markets resort to profit-taking after the recent upbeat US fundamentals-backed greenback rally. Meanwhile, the US dollar index drops -0.13% to 98 levels.
Markets now await the German retail sales and import prices data for fresh incentives on the major ahead of the US pending home sales and Chicago PMI due later in the NY session. While the US NFP data is expected to remain the key risk event for the pair this week.
