The newest report from University of Michigan is well-alligned with the most recent boost in retail sales, not-so-tragic CPI reading and flat producer prices. EURUSD halted a series gains following data relsease, although USDIDX remains muted. The report seems to be positive for a stock market, making Fed rate cut earlier more probable. Long term inflation expectations fell significantly to 3.6% vs 4% in June reading.
