The euro firmed to two-month highs against the dollar, underpinned by expectations that the European Central Bank will raise interest rates next month while the U.S. Federal Reserve will stop tightening policy when the rates get to 5%. The ECB is broadly expected to keep interest rates unchanged at its policy meeting this Thursday but hike them by 25 basis points to 2.75% in May. The euro also jumped to a record high of 144.19 yen and hit new a two-year peak against the Swiss franc.
The crown eased further from a one-month high of 28.375 per euro on Tuesday, shadowing falls of Hungarian forint and Polish zloty.
