Euro/dollar slipped below 1.12

At the trading session in Europe, the US dollar is trading in the positive zone. The euro/dollar is losing 23 points compared to Friday's close at 1.1193. GBP/USD fell 60 pips to 1.3068. UK markets are closed for a bank holiday in the country, which leads the cable to low volumes and high volatility.
The US dollar continues to get support from Friday's speech by Janet Yellen and the next increase in US interest rates. The British pound fall against the dollar is stronger than the euro, as the cross-pair EUR/GBP is trading higher.
In the evening US are about to publish reports of expenditures on personal consumption and the index of personal income and costs. These can have an impact on the dynamics of the dollar, if they are significantly higher/lower than the predicted values. If they match with the expectations, there will be no reaction to the news.
