Consumer sentiment from the University of Michigan

  • Prior was 100.7
  • Current conditions 113.6 vs 116.5 prior
  • Expectations 87.6 vs 90.5 prior
  • 1 year inflation +2.6% vs +2.4% prior
  • 5-10 year inflation 2.5% vs 2.5% prior

Disappointing numbers but sentiment is still near the cycle highs.

The US dollar dipped on the headlines and that helped EUR/USD to the best levels of the day.
