Breaking News: EUR/USD plummets to fresh 2018 lows near 1.1350

The EUR/USD pair came under a renewed selling pressure in the American trading hours and fell to its lowest level in 13-months at 1.1349. A strengthening greenback seems to be the primary catalyst behind this recent fall with the US Dollar Index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six major currencies, advancing to the highest level of the year at 96.61. As of writing, the pair was trading at 1.1360, losing 0.45% on the day.
