During today's European trading, the US dollar rose slightly as traders await the conclusion of the US Federal Reserve's two-day meeting, which will present recommendations for future monetary policy. Investors will be closely watching the Fed's comments on bond yields. Government bond yields around the world jumped on expectations that economic growth and inflation could lead to a faster-than-expected normalization of monetary policy.​

The yen fell against the dollar, and is trading near a nine-month low, ahead of the Bank of Japan's two-day meeting, which ends on Friday.
