USD
As you might have noticed, USD isn’t at its best right now, but there is always room for surprise. However, it’s still useful to remember that constant China-US game of push and pull regarding restrictions and sanctions.

EUR
The lower USD performs, the higher EUR climbs - that’s the principle. Euro performing at its lowest in November is pretty unstable, exhibiting both bearish and bullish trends. All eyes are on Markit November PMI - don’t miss on that one!

GBP
Brexit is at it again (we are going to miss all the fuss and extreme volatility once it’s over. If it’s over). Lately, GBP performed worse among the major currencies, mostly because of all the evidence pointing that after the election on the 12th of December, Great Britain is going to have a hung Parliament.

AUD
The Australian dollar has been more or less stable lately, but that’s no surprise - its performance depends a lot on Australian businesses within mainland China. It’s better to monitor the overall situation with China-US, which might influence AUD and help its growth.
