This study does not appear to be having a substantial impact on the performance of the US Dollar against its key rivals.
The US Dollar Index stayed almost flat for the day as of writing, at 104.38.
Sales of new single-family homes increased 5.8% in November to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 640,000.
According to figures released simultaneously on Friday by the US Census Bureau and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
This number came in far better than the market projection of a contraction of 4.7%, following October’s gain of 8.2%.
