The U.S. dollar advanced against its major counterparts in the
New York session on Friday, amid higher treasury yields and a
pullback in U.S. stocks.
U.S. stocks fell amid profit taking, as traders cash in on some
of the strong gains posted during Thursday's session.
Treasury yields rose as recent strong economic data indicated
continued strength in the economy.
Although the Fed has already signaled plans to continue lowering
rates in the coming months, incoming data could still impact market
sentiment.
Reports on durable goods orders, new home sales and consumer
confidence are likely to attract attention next week along with a
report on personal income and spending that includes the Fed's
preferred inflation gauge.
