Dollar Slump Sets Stage for EUR/USD Breakout Amid Diverging Data
TL;DR Summary
US data softness (July retail sales −0.6% and weak CPI/PPI) weighs on the dollar, pushing the DXY lower after breaking its uptrend; as Eurozone data surprises improve, EUR/USD closes above the 100-day moving average for the first time since May, raising prospects for a breakout, though a quiet week and price action will determine the move with key levels around 1.1577 resistance and 1.1480 support.
