Currency trading was subdued on Monday as financial markets in London and the United States were closed for public holidays. The euro took little notice of favourable consumer confidence data and euro zone current account and investment figures. But this morning, the dollar fell sharply against the euro and yen after British newspaper The Times of London reported that Don Evans, a possible successor to U.S. Trasury Secretary John Snow, may favour a weaker dollar. Looking ahead, markets will focus mainly on the minutes for the May 10 Federal Reserve meeting due out on Wednesday, U.S. Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing index on Thursday and the monthly U.S. jobs data on Friday.
The Czech crown slipped against the euro in a technically-driven trade on Monday. The activity was low due to holidays in major markets.
