Traders still optimistic

Traders still remain broadly positive towards riskier assets as the spread of the delta variant of Covid-19 in the US increases the likelihood that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell may not, after all, signal a tapering of US monetary policy when he speaks – virtually – at the Fed’s Jackson Hole symposium Friday.

EUR/USD, for example, remains in demand as traders shun safe havens like the US Dollar, although there were signs early Tuesday that Monday’s interest in risk assets like the Euro was beginning to wane.
