According to reports released on yesterday, the trade deficit which measure the gap between US imports and exports has narrowed to $49.3 billion in November, substantially lower than $55.70 billion on the prior month. The upbeat trade data has provided bullish trajectory on the dollar as market participants has fully digested bearish signals given by the US Federal Reserve since two-weeks ago. On the other hand, pair of EUR\/USD slumped by 0.04% to 1.1368 as of writing. The single common currency hit two-weeks low against the greenback after Germany Factory Orders data came in lower than expected, showing broader perspective of economic weakness while hinting possible recession.
