US Dollar edges up to 93.00 mark on EUR weakness

   •  Catalan election-led Euro weakness helps gain some traction.
   •  Thursday’s final US Q3 GDP print remains supportive. 
   •  US Senate approves funding bill to avert a government shutdown.
   •  US data eyed for fresh impetus. 

The US Dollar was seen trying to recover some of its weekly losses and got a minor from weakening Euro. The European shared currency came under some increasing selling pressure after Catalan separatists won a majority in Spanish regional election.

The USD was further supported Thursday's final US GDP print, which showed that the economy grew at its fastest pace since Q1 2015. A separate report showed that initial weekly jobless claims jumped more-than-expected but was largely negated by upbeat Philly Fed Manufacturing Index.

Meanwhile, the passage of the most significant US tax code overhaul in three decades, coupled with the US Senate's approval to fund the federal government through Jan. 19 and avert a government shutdown further underpinned the buck. 

Currently hovering around the 93.00 handle, investors now look forward to the US macro data for some fresh impetus. Today's US economic docket features the release of personal income/spending figures for November, along with the Fed's preferred inflation gauge - core PCE price index, Durable Goods Orders, New Home Sales and the Michigan consumer sentiment index.
