The U.S. dollar firmed against its major counterparts in the New
York session on Monday, as investors focus on key U.S. economic
data due later this week.
The monthly jobs report as well as a report on personal income
and spending that includes the Federal Reserve's preferred
inflation readings are likely to be in the spotlight.
Reports on third quarter GDP, consumer confidence, pending home
sales and manufacturing sector activity may also attract some
attention.
The data could impact the outlook for the economy as well as
expectations regarding how quickly the Fed will lower interest
rates.
Prominent U.S. companies that will report their earnings results
this week include Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, Intel
Advanced Micro Devices, McDonald's, Eli Lilly, ExxonMobil and
Starbucks.
