Market news
Today we expect important news for Europe and the United States. In Europe, attention should be paid to the speech by the President of the European Central Bank (ECB), Mario Draghi. There may be strong movements at the time of his presentation. The UK is not publishing any important statistics today. As for the United States, we should pay attention to the statistics on sales of existing homes, since we are expecting better data than the previous which could have a positive impact on the USD.
