The euro practically ignored all macroeconomic data that was published yesterday. US jobs report turned out to be significantly worse than the forecast. The number of initial jobless claims increased by 4,000 while economists had expected a decrease by 13,000. The number of continuing claims declined by only 3,000 versus the forecast value of 85,000. At the same time, there was positive news as well. The second estimate of the US GDP for the second quarter showed that on a quarterly basis, the economy expanded by 6.6% versus the forecast value of 6.5%. The difference is insignificant. The annual growth rate remained at the same level of 12.2%, but this is at least some positive data after the disappointing jobs report. Nevertheless, jobs data is much more important, given that the decision of the Federal Reserve System on the quantitative easing program depends on the steady revival of the labor market. Hence, the euro was supposed to strengthen even more. Yet, it did not happen. So, the stagnation of the euro is a clear sign that the US dollar may still have a chance to regain its position. Its decline at the beginning of the week could be just a correction. Today, amid an empty macroeconomic calendar, the euro may well show a downward movement.
US Continuing Jobless Claims
