The euro gained strength on U.S. dollar weakness and limited eurozone data, while the pound advanced amid softer Fed expectations and external influence. The yen recovered as safe-haven demand rose on geopolitical developments and U.S. policy uncertainty. The Australian dollar climbed despite weak inflation due to risk-on sentiment and a falling greenback. Gold remained firm as lower yields, geopolitical easing, and Fed uncertainty lifted demand. Caution prevailed ahead of key U.S. data that could shift sentiment and influence central bank expectations across major currencies.
