Although on Friday, the macroeconomic calendar was not rich in events, the euro was gradually gaining in value. Of course, the magnitude of the growth is not impressive, but it is still a rise. Since today the US is going to disclose a report on durable goods orders that may show a 0.3% decline, the euro is highly likely to go on climbing. The fact is that a drop in goods orders points to a possible decrease in retail sales. Notably, retail sales is the main indicator of consumer activity, which is the key driver of the whole economy. In other words, a fall in durable goods orders proves concerns about economic recession in the US. This information will inevitably push the greenback lower.
