On Thursday, the US House of Representatives passed a bill to fund government operations through to Feb. 16 and avoid agency shutdowns from Saturday when existing allocations expire. The bill has yet to be approved by the Senate, where it faces an uncertain future.
"At the start of the week, it was an outside risk. Now it's a real risk," Vassili Serebriakov, currency strategist at Credit Agricole in New York, said of a government shutdown.
Some investors downplayed a possible shutdown, saying the market impact would be mild anyway.
