EURUSD
The euro posted modest gains on Thursday, rising 0.12% against the US dollar. The move came as weekly jobless claims data softened the greenback ahead of the closely watched Non-Farm Payrolls report.
Traders also drew support from positive signals around US-Iran negotiations. Pakistan's Foreign Minister reportedly told journalists that talks between Washington and Tehran have been uninterrupted, adding to risk-on sentiment that tends to favor the euro over the dollar.
