3Novices:Dollar inches up on Yellen hopes, Greek breather

By Marc Jones LONDON (Reuters) - World shares held near all-time highs on Tuesday on relief that Greece had submitted reform plans and the dollar was firmer on expectations that Fed chair Janet Yellen would keep the bank nudging towards U.S. rate hikes. "In the Commission's view, this list is sufficiently comprehensive to be a valid starting point for a successful conclusion of the review," one European Commission source told Reuters. Yellen testifies before Congress on Tuesday and there is much uncertainty over whether she will echo the dovish tone of the minutes from the Fed's last meeting, or reaffirm June as a window for a first rate hike.
