U.S. Dollar Weakens Amid Risk Appetite
(RTTNews) - The U.S. dollar fell against its major counterparts in the New York session on Tuesday amid risk appetite following a deal to end the government shutdown.
The Senate approved a funding bill to fund the government until the end of January.
The House must approve the bill and it is unclear how much time it will take.
The development towards reopening the government boosted investor sentiment.
