The release of the Fed's preferred measure of inflation, the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, is awaited for potential clues about the central bank's potential course of interest rate cuts later this year.

Economic data from the euro zone and Japan shows different levels of inflationary pressure. The US dollar rose slightly in early European trade ahead of the key inflation data, which could drive future interest rate expectations.

The dollar is set for its first monthly decline in 2024 amid expectations of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve. The US Dollar Index (DXY) fell by 0.33% on Friday, while the euro gained 0.41%, as US Treasury yields dipped following inflation data that matched expectations. The US economy grew at an annualized rate of 1.3% in Q1 2024, revised down from the previous estimate of 1.6%. The euro gained as French, German, and Spanish inflation data exceeded forecasts, suggesting ECB rate cuts.
