Euro trims gains after upbeat U.S. consumer confidence data

Euro trimmed its gains on Friday after strong U.S. consumer confidence data that buoyed the dollar and pushed the euro back to the opening.
 
EUR/USD last traded at 1.0584, compared to the opening of 1.0585, with a session-high at 1.0619, and a low at 1.0566.
 
The University of Michigan's consumer confidence survey rose to 96.3 in February from 95.7, besting expectations of 96.1.

Strong consumer confidence data from American underpinned the greenback anew against a basket of rivals after hitting a one-week high, which led the euro down and restored interest in the dollar.
 
The euro is on track for a weekly loss but wavering remains dominant over the common currency as the dollar changes in one hand, while political tensions in the Eurozone mount on the other.
