During the European session, the pair went up a bit as traders followed the progress in the US stimulus talks keenly; the upbeat mood following the first approved coronavirus treatment put the safe-haven status of USD in less demand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The dollar weakness was also fuelled by the expectations of a strong democratic victory in the November elections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Meanwhile, Brexit discussions made some progress in competition guarantees, including state aid rules; but fishing remained a sore point. The UK is batting for regaining control over its waters while the EU wants to continue their access. EU chief Brexit negotiator had earlier warned that there would be no trade deal without finding an agreement on fisheries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The second wave of coronavirus is also worrying the investors over its potential impact on the fragile global economic recovery. Also, the lukewarm progress in the US stimulus discussions affected the risk sentiments at the start of a new trading week today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GBP\/USD trades above 1.3000 during the Asian session today and will await the release of New Home Sales data from the US later in the day.
