United States (US) Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said during European trading hours on Wednesday that the trade deal between the European Union and Washington is long-lasting.
Additional remarks
Market reaction
There seems to be no meaningful impact of Lutnick’s comments on the US Dollar, as they offer no breakthrough on the US-EU trade outlook. As of writing, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is off from intraday highs after giving back early gains, trades marginally higher around 98.60.
