EUR/USD: EUR is currently trading at 1.3375 levels.

GBP/USD: GBP is currently trading at 1.5550 levels. The cable is weak vs. the US Dollar amid risk aversion in the financial market but rallied vs. the Euro as worsening EU economic outlook is increasing the demand for the cable and the UK Gilts in the region.

Gold: Gold is currently trading at 1691.63 levels.
