The U.S. dollar experienced fluctuations as markets awaited the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, with the currency showing signs of jitteriness. Meanwhile, the Australian and New Zealand dollars saw an uptick, influenced by China's pledge to increase stimulus measures in the coming year. The Canadian dollar also edged higher due to the same stimulus announcement from China. The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) decided to keep its policy rate unchanged but softened its hawkish rhetoric, leading to a drop in the Australian dollar.
