The greenback continued to be supported against its rivals on Thursday as investors awaited U.S. GDP numbers due later in the day.
The U.S. dollar index was up 0.34% to hit 97.55.
The key event for market players is likely to be the release of U.S. second-quarter gross domestic product data due at 8:30 a.m. Analysts mostly expect that the economy rebounded following a contraction in the first quarter after an unusually harsh winter. Analysts expect second-quarter GDP rose at a 2.5% annual clip, bouncing back from a negative 0.2% reading in the first quarter.
Other data includes the weekly jobless claims and a new (very first time) advance trade in goods report.
EUR/USD was down 0.35% to 1.0947 from 1.0983 late Wednesday.

Meanwhile, U.S. stocks were fluctuating as investors stayed on the sidelines ahead of second-quarter growth data
that could also impact the timing of the first Federal Reserve
interest-rate hike.
