The risk-off mood supports the US dollar broadly.
The dovish stance of the ECB weighs on the shared currency.

On Monday, a spokesperson at the US Department of State said they are “seriously concerned by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) military drills in the Taiwan Strait and around Taiwan.” They further stated that they will monitor PRC activities and coordinate with allies and partners regarding our shared concerns. Any signs of escalating tensions could boost the safe-haven flows, benefiting the Greenback and weighing on the major pair.
