Greenback Gains As US Q2 GDP Tops Estimates


The dollar rose against most of its rivals Thursday on higher-than expected US Q2 GDP revisions and falling oil prices. The euro reversed overnight gains on declining oil prices. Sterling fell against the dollar and approached a record low against the euro as the UK economic outlook continued to deteriorate. The Canadian dollar fell in tandem with oil prices after the Energy Department said it is ready to release oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve if supplies are reduced by tropical storm Gustav. The yen declined as US stocks rose for a third day. The Australian dollar rose after Australia's Q2 business investment increased almost three times as much as forecast.
The GBP/USD dropped after reports showed UK house prices fell for a tenth consecutive month and retail sales fell to the lowest since 1983. Pressured by both diminishing growth and interest rate expectations, the GBP/USD is on tap for a six consecutive weekly decline. Oversold on all measures, the pound, however, will likely continue to fall. Support exists at 1.81 and resistance at 1.85.
