Fundamental News:
The dollar was broadly higher against the other major currencies on Tuesday, as the yen remained under pressure after ratings agency Moody’s downgraded Japan's sovereign debt rating and as markets were jittery ahead of the European Central Bank's upcoming policy meeting.
The dollar declined from the highest level in more than five years amid speculation the currency may have strengthened too much, too fast.
The greenback slipped versus most of its 16 major peers after a gauge of the Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index’s relative strength exceeded 70 on Nov. 28, a level some traders consider a signal an asset may reverse course.

Fundamental News:
The euro remained under pressure after data on Friday showed that the annual rate of euro area inflation slowed to a five year low of 0.3% last month, down from 0.4% in October.
The weak data added to pressure on the ECB to step up measures to spur growth and stave off the threat of deflation ahead of its upcoming policy meeting on Thursday
Sentiment on the single currency also remained vulnerable after data on Monday showed that the euro zone’s manufacturing purchasing managers' index slowed to 50.1 from a preliminary reading of 50.4 last month, just barely above the 50 level separating growths from contraction.
Earlier Tuesday, official data showed that the number of unemployed people in Spain declined by 14,700 in November, compared to expectations for an increase of 57,300, after a 79,200 rise in October.
