Investing.com – The U.S. dollar fell back from the previous session\u2019s two-week high in early European trade Tuesday ahead of the start of the Federal Reserve\u2019s two-day policy meeting, while the Australian dollar soared after the RBA surprised with a rate hike.<\/p>\n

Preliminary data for April, due later in the session, is expected to show that inflation remains elevated in the euro bloc, prompting the ECB to hike again on Thursday. This should provide the single currency with underlying support.<\/p>\n

traded largely flat at 1.2497, with stronger than expected , released by Nationwide earlier Tuesday, likely to provide the with more tightening ammunition when it meets next week.<\/p>\n
