Personal opinions today:
 
This week, the market will be watching U.S. manufacturing indexes for major cities, manufacturing PMI, existing and new home sales, durable goods orders, and the U.S. GDP in the second quarter. Recording memory, U.S. economic data has shown steady gains and job growth has returned to normal. Adding to the fed's clarification on the interest rate cut level , the market is pricing in a rate cut of no more than 50 basis points at the end of the month, correction the dollar loss.
 
The British morning time, the new U.K. prime minister result announced then the prime minister speech today or tomorrow. European central bank monetary decision on Thursday. Uncertainty sentiment send safe-haven flows to the dollar. 
 
If the new British prime minister's comments trigger market expectations of a hard Brexit and risk on, watch for further declines in pound and the euro.
