The US dollar is stable relative to the basket of major currencies. However, investors are still concerned about a possible military conflict between the US, Russia and Syria. President of the United States Donald Trump has not yet expressed a clear position and further actions towards Syria, so the situation in the markets is ambiguous. Because of the conflict between the US and Syria, fears about the beginning of the trade war between the US and China have taken a back seat. The US dollar index (#DX) closed with a plus (+0.27%) yesterday.
