Investing.com – The euro rebounded from a 3-week low against the U.S. dollar on Monday, after U.S. economic data released Friday eased fears that the U.S. economic recovery is losing momentum.
EUR/USD hit 1.2799 during late Asian trade, a daily high; the pair subsequently consolidated at 1.2793, gaining 0.30%.
The pair was likely to find support at 1.2682, the low of July 14 and resistance at 1.3186, the high of August 11.
On Friday, official data showed that both U.S. retail sales and consumer price inflation rose broadly in line with expectations in July, easing fears over a slowdown in the rate of U.S. economic growth.
The euro was also up against the pound, with EUR/GBP gaining 0.13% to hit 0.8190.
Later in the day, the euro zone was to produce important data on consumer price inflation.
