dollar and oil supplies
On Tuesday, the 5th, the dollar was still scratching against the other major currencies. Risk appetite seems to be diminishing, but traders pulled away from going to the dollar. The dollar hit a ow against the pound it had not seen since last fall.
Oil invetories are higher, however crude is testing $72. U.S. commercial crude inventories went up by 1.7 million barrels in the previous week.
