This shift comes as investors monitor developments in Ukraine and potential changes in defense spending across the euro area.<br><br>A Push for Peace in Ukraine<br><br>The catalyst behind this rebound was a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the Oval Office, which ended with a disagreement over Ukraine's support. This has prompted European leaders to draw up a peace plan to present to Washington, signaling a potential turning point in the conflict.<br><br>The Consequences of a Draconian Approach<br><br>The risk is growing that the US might completely cut off aid to Ukraine, and Europe needs a plan to fill the gap.

Will a more selective approach to tariffs be enough to stem the tide, or will we see a continued escalation in the trade war?<br><br>Cryptocurrency Update<br><br>Bitcoin surged back to the cusp of $95,000 earlier on Monday after Trump named the token as among those to be included in a new strategic cryptocurrency reserve. This move has sent shockwaves through the crypto scene, with Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone, stating It's clear that this is a positive shock to the crypto scene and a shot in the arm for a market desperately in need of a catalyst to alter the bear trend lower.<br><br>Currency Updates<br><br>* The Canadian dollar gained about 0.2 percent to CA$1.4444<br>* The Mexican peso also rose by around 0.2 percent to 20.50 pesos per US dollar<br>* The yen rose 0.35 percent to 150.08 per dollar<br>* The Aussie rose 0.1 percent to $0.6213, while New Zealand's kiwi remained flat at $0.5599<br><br>What's Next?<br><br>As the Euro continues its rebound, investors will be keeping a close eye on developments in Ukraine and the trade war.
