Jobs data on Monday showed a brighter outlook, with U.S. job openings falling slightly in April as hiring surged to a record high. On Tuesday, from UK, employment and wage growth figures due out on Tuesday will also have a material impact on the Pound. From US, May wholesale inflation and consumer price numbers due out on Tuesday and Wednesday will also drive the Dollar.
