News about that by results of elections in the USA the Democratic Party restored the control over the House of Representatives after twelve years of domination of a Republican Party, led to that the dollar tested the next pressure.
The number of places which was received by Democrats in the lower chamber of the Congress, is not declared yet, however leaders of both parties recognized that the majority is already for Democratic Party.
Until now there is no confidence that Democrats could receive the control over the Senate.
Let's remind that 3 places are already behind them, but for the control over the Senate it is necessary to receive six places, having kept all current positions.
There is great probability that Republicans nevertheless will keep the control over the Senate with the minimal overweight.

At the same time significant upward revision of a parameter for the last month is noticed.

Last publications support a little the European currencies against dollar. So, trade balance of Germany for September made +15.6 billion euros, at the forecast +13.0 billion euros, and the previous value +11.2 billion euros.
And the current account in Germany made +9.4 billion euro for September, at the forecast +6.0 billion euro. The previous value is revised from +2.4 up to +2.5 billion euros. As a result both indicators were better than the expected levels.
