0903 GMT - The euro falls to a one-month low against a strengthening dollar as markets price in a high possibility of the U.S. Federal Reserve increasing interest rates at its decision on Wednesday. Following Friday's strong U.S. CPI inflation data, investors price an 87% probability of the Fed raising rates this week, LSEG data show. The European Central Bank increased interest rates last week but attention will now turn to further evidence on state of the eurozone economy, including Tuesday's German ZEW survey. "With the ECB placing greater emphasis on high-frequency indicators, [the] German ZEW survey will be closely watched," ING's Francesco Pesole says in a note. The euro falls 0.5% to low of $1.1533, LSEG data show.
