Dollar strengthens slightly as market sentiment shifts

The dollar is making slight gains as market sentiment shifts. S&P 500 futures have fallen by 0.2%. This decline is contributing to an overall advance for the dollar. In the currency market, the euro is down 0.3% against the dollar, trading at 1.0820. Selling pressure is present, keeping the euro lower.
