Dollar to fresh lows

The greenback tumbled to fresh multi-month lows against the euro at 1.4443 and the sterling at 1.6934 as traders move to break the major pairs out of recent ranges. With equities extending recent gains and commodities edging higher, the dollar remains under pressure amid a shift toward riskier assets. Optimism over a global economic rebound continues to improve, reinforcing sentiment that the worst of the recession may be over.

The week ahead will provide further insight into state of the US economy, providing fodder for equity market bulls and ultimately sending the dollar to fresh lows.
