NEW YORK, New York -The U.S. dollar advanced against most major currencies on Monday, as investors moved toward the greenback amid ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and anticipation of key economic data releases later in the week. Several major currency pairs saw notable shifts, with commodity-linked currencies retreating and European currencies weakening further.

The euro slipped to 1.1586 dollars, down 0.30 percent, as softer eurozone indicators continued to weigh on sentiment. Analysts noted that market participants are waiting for fresh inflation data to gauge whether the European Central Bank might shift its policy outlook in the coming months.

Against the Japanese yen, the U.S. dollar strengthened to 155.21 yen, rising 0.45 percent. The move reflected renewed demand for US assets, with traders citing interest-rate differentials as a key driver.

The greenback also firmed against the Canadian dollar. The USDCAD pair climbed to 1.4052, an increase of 0.25 percent, with weaker crude oil prices contributing to the Canadian currency's decline.

Sterling eased slightly, as the British pound fell to 1.3150 dollars, down 0.17 percent, amid continued caution over the UK's economic outlook.

The U.S. dollar gained ground on the Swiss franc, with the USDCHF rate rising to 0.7962, an increase of 0.42 percent, reversing part of last week's defensive franc buying.

In the Asia–Pacific region, both major commodity currencies weakened significantly. The Australian dollar fell to 0.6484 dollars, sliding 0.75 percent, after lower metals prices pressured the currency. The New Zealand dollar also retreated, dropping to 0.5650 dollars, a decline of 0.49 percent, as investors trimmed exposure to risk-sensitive assets.

Overall, Monday's moves underscored a renewed phase of US dollar strength, with traders watching closely for upcoming economic signals that could set the tone for global currency markets in the days ahead.
