Dollar continues its bearish momentum after US Core CPI month-over-month data missed its expectations and causes investors to worry about the impact brought onto Fed\u2019s plan for gradual rate hikes in the future as economists feel that a poor CPI data indicates that the inflation rate is not growing as planned.
