EUR/USD remained unchanged in the last week rebounding to 1.1250 level where it had started on April 1. The pair majorly had followed an overall bearish weekly trend.

The euro pair was 0.12 percent up during Monday’s Asian trading session on the back of tumbling USD Index. The Index had fallen steeply from 97.38 to 97.24 level during the morning hours. The main rationales to push down the US Dollar Index was the growing political controversies in the Libyan region, and the burgeoning Trump proclaimed US-Mexican border issues.

The Brexit drama continues to remain vague ahead of the nearing deadline of April 12. UK PM Theresa stays stubborn to get her thrice-rejected deal accepted or else she will opt for a lengthier extension. Speculations had arisen that the EU would grant the UK a year period to exit the consortium of nations. If the UK comes up with a proper deal benefitting both the parties, situations should mitigate.
