The US dollar has shown resilience, consolidating its recent two-day surge following last week's robust jobs data. Despite the Reserve Bank of Australia's stance on potential rate hikes and an upbeat performance by the Australian dollar within the G10, the greenback remains steady. Meanwhile, the euro struggled to gain momentum despite an unexpectedly strong German factory orders report, hovering near previous session lows. Sterling has finally broken free from its $1.26-$1.28 range, yet its movement remains constrained within a narrow band of $1.2530-65.

The Reserve Bank of Australia opted to maintain its cash target rate at 4.35%, citing economic weakening and subdued inflation pressures. While officials kept the door open for further tightening, the Aussie edged towards $0.6520, slightly below yesterday's peak.
On the other hand, the dollar has maintained its strength against the yen, holding below yesterday's high near JPY148.80.

Europe
Eurozone retail sales registered a 1.1% decline in December, marking the second consecutive monthly drop. The year-over-year reading also remained negative, aligning with expectations following Germany's disappointing 1.6% decrease.

The euro's trajectory suggests a potential retreat towards the 1.0550 support level against the US dollar.
Sterling, however, saw a decisive breakout from its recent trading range, reaching around $1.2520 before encountering selling pressure.

America 
Market focus shifts to scheduled speeches by four regional Fed officials, with Cleveland Fed's Mester being the sole voter this year on the FOMC. The US dollar has found early support against the Canadian dollar ahead of the CAD1.3500 mark, reflecting mixed sentiment in global markets.

In summary, while the US dollar consolidates recent gains, global market sentiment remains mixed amid central bank policies and economic data releases. Investors continue to monitor developments closely for potential market opportunities and risks.
