EUR/USD eyes 1.10 on EMU CPI
FXStreet (Edinburgh) - The euro is now advancing further vs. the dollar, lifting EUR/USD to the boundaries of the critical barrier at 1.1000.
EUR/USD stronger on data
Spot saw its upside boosted after core consumer prices in the euro area rose more than previously estimated on a year to May, 0.9% vs. 0.7% expected; headline consumer prices also surprised to the upside, gaining 0.3% YoY vs. 0.2% anticipated.
Next of relevance for the pair will be US Factory Orders, expected to come in flat on a monthly basis during April, followed by the Total Vehicle Sales in May and the IBD/TIPP Economic Optimism gauge.
EUR/USD levels to watch
The pair is now up 0.55% at 1.0988 with the next resistance at 1.0994 (high Jun.2) ahead of 1.1006 (high May 29) and then 1.1010 (high May 25). On the flip side, a breach of 1.0867 (low May 28) would aim for 1.0819 (low May 27) and finally 1.0800 (psychological level).
