EUR/USD approaches daily highs after US data
EUR/USD remained steady near daily highs following the release of lackluster US import prices data.

US data showed import prices increased 0.2% in June, below 0.5% expected, while export prices gained 0.8% above the 0.3% expected. A quiet session ahead with Fed’s Beige Book along with speeches by FOMC’s Harker and Kaplan scheduled.
