US events lined up today:
- US Fed William's speech is scheduled today. The Federal Reserve kept the interest rate at 0.25% during the meeting held on April 29th.
- Core CPI MoM is forecasted to remain at 0.2% where previously printed at 0.2% as well.
- Fed Chair Yellen Speech: The US inflation data is projected to offer little in the way of surprise and it's hard to see Fed Chair Yellen saying anything new, that we didn't learn from the minutes released earlier in the week.
We retain our underlying bear bias for an eventual move back to the lows, with 1.1240/75 resistance ahead of the recent highs at 1.1467.
