The dollar unexpectedly marched higher on Tuesday after the oil prices fell again and the US stock indices managed to advance. There was little impact from news that the index of pending home re-sales fell 4.7 percent in June following an upwardly revised 7.1 percent gain in April. It's summer time and the market is very unclear - but the dollar should attempt to pad its gains on Wednesday.
