Magnetic Field
A moving charge causes a magnetic field, following the right hand rule: Your thumb pointing towards the direction of movement of the positive charge, and your other fingers wrap around to indicate the direction of the magnetic field.
A circulating current forms a magnetic dipole.

Any component going along the direction of current is cancelled by cross product. Something else. Therefore, it is unsurprising that magnetic field is circulating.
