Final trading session of the week was a rather calm one. Stock markets in Europe did not experience any major price moves and the majority of benchmarks from the Old Continent finished the day little changed. More upbeat moods can be spotted on Wall Street, where S&P 500 retested all-time highs. Nasdaq-100 is a laggard among US indices trading near yesterday's closing level.
US PCE inflation data, Fed's preferred price growth measure, showed an acceleration from 3.6% YoY in April to 3.9% YoY in May. Core gauge moved from 3.1% to 3.4%. Data did not trigger a major market reaction as it was in-line with expectations. USD lost some ground with EURUSD jumping above 1.1970. However, the move has been erased by now and the main currency pair trades little change on the day.
