02-09-2020 18:52The euro rose to its highest level since May 2018 against the greenback on September 1, reaching the key $1.20 mark. However, the single currency then retreated to the 1.19 level.
The euro is gaining strength against the dollar, having soared by 11% from its March low amid support measures taken by the EU authorities.
