The heat map shows percentage changes of major currencies against each other. The base currency is picked from the left column, while the quote currency is picked from the top row. For example, if you pick the US Dollar from the left column and move along the horizontal line to the Japanese Yen, the percentage change displayed in the box will represent USD (base)/JPY (quote).

EUR/USD falls toward 1.1440, losing around 0.2% amid renewed US Dollar strength. Investors now await the final Eurozone inflation report. Core HICP inflation is expected to remain at 2.4% YoY, while headline inflation is forecast at -0.1% MoM.

GBP/USD declines toward 1.3470, falling around 0.5% as broad demand for the Greenback weighs on the Pound Sterling.

USD/JPY rises toward 162.40, gaining around 0.1% as the stronger US Dollar keeps the Japanese Yen under pressure. However, concerns over possible intervention by Japanese authorities may limit further gains.

AUD/USD falls below 0.7000 and trades near 0.6995, down around 0.2%. Australian Consumer Inflation Expectations declined to 4.7% in July from 5.5%, while stronger US jobless claims data supported the Greenback.

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Oil falls toward $79.00 per barrel, losing around 1.6% as traders take profits following its recent advance despite continued concerns surrounding Middle East supply risks.

Gold drops sharply toward $3,982, declining almost 2% as the rebound in the US Dollar reduces demand for the non-yielding precious metal.

On Friday, market participants will monitor the final Eurozone inflation figures, alongside US Housing Starts, Building Permits, Industrial Production, and the preliminary University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index.
