Reports published last Friday turned out to be very positive for the American currency. First of all, it’s the final GDP reading in the third quarter of 2019, which showed the same 2.1% q/q as expected without any surprise.

The Personal Income showed +0.5% m/m in November after adding 0.1% m/m in the previous month and against the expected reading of +0.3% m/m. The Personal Spending, in its turn, was +0.4% m/m after being +0.3% m/m the month before. Improvement of both these indicators is very positive for the country’s economy in general and the Retail Sales index, which may be affected by them and skyrocket.

The Revised University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment increased up to 99.3 points in December, which is the highest reading since this May. By the way, in November the indicator was 96.8 points, while the expected reading was 99.2 points.

The Inflation Expectations reduced to 2.3%, the lowest reading over three years.
