Comment:
The U.S. dollar edged lower in early European trade Friday, but remained near a two-decade high ahead of the widely watched monthly U.S. jobs report which could point to further hefty interest rate hikes. While this would represent a slowing in job growth from July’s 528,000, it would still mark the 20th straight month of job growth and likely support a continuation of aggressive rate hikes from the Fed to the benefit of the dollar.
