EUR/USD recovery stalls below session high, back near 1.1200 mark
|Having touched its lowest level since Sept. 21, the EUR/USD pair witnessed a sharp recovery and moved back above 1.1200 handle.
Currently hovering around 1.1200 region, the pair caught fresh bids at session low level of 1.1153 following the release of slightly disappointing US consumer spending data. The pair subsequently spiked close to session high struggled to extend the recovery momentum as better-than-expected Chicago PMI print and upward revision of UoM Consumer Sentiment index for September extended support for the US Dollar bulls.
With the US economic releases out of the way, any fresh news / development surrounding the Deutsche Bank issue would remain the key driver of the pair's momentum during US trading session.
