0.95 is left behind

Now the way up is going to be easier, especially if the US PCE deflator scheduled for release today shows higher than expected levels. Since the indicator is one of the most favorite measures of inflation used by the Fed, the closer the number is to 2% target, the more chances the monetary authorities speed up the shift to tightening, and the more reasons to see the pair closer to 0.96 handle.
