Course

dollar /yen has grown on the Asian session, with the level of 89.84 to 90.36. The euro /yen rose from 125.93 to 126.75 marks. Weakening of the yen helps the growth of quotations on the stock markets. Growing demand for risky instruments is partly due to the fact that the U.S. president Obama in today”s speech marking the anniversary of his tenure, he promised to exert all efforts to revive the American economy, reduce debt and create U.S. jobs.

The euro /dollar fell on the Asian session to a mark 1.3941, lowest since July last year. Supporting the dollar is the fact that one member of the Open Market Committee called for the U.S. Federal Reserve will soon raise key interest rates in the country. At the same time the euro is under pressure due to problems in some European countries with the financing of its debt.
