The US Dollar rose on Monday on holiday-thinned trading, amid higher US yields. On Tuesday, China will inform inflation figures, and Australia Consumer and Business Confidence. Eurozone Retail Sales are also due. Despite all those indicators, the focus is on Wednesday's US March Consumer Price Index. 

Here is what you need to know on Tuesday, April 11:

The US Dollar Index (DXY) extended its recovery and rose on Easter Monday, hitting a weekly high at 102.82, boosted by higher US yields and as equity prices performed mixed in Wall Street. The US 10-year yield settled at 3.42% while the 2-year rose above 4%. The Dow Jones rose 0.3%, the S&P 500 0.10% but the Nasdaq lost 0.03%. It was a quiet trading session with European markets closed. The Q1 earnings season kick-offs. 

Market participants continue to digest the latest US Employment numbers. On Tuesday, data to be released include March Chinese inflation (Consumer and Producer Price Index) awaiting the US CPI on Wednesday.
