The data suggest that the region have starting to expand and bounce back which could help alleviate the economy, therefore provide some support for the greenback. However, market remains cautious as expectation of 25 basis points rate cut by Fed continue to dominate the market sentiment and investors awaiting further data to look for more clues.
