EUR/USD headed for an eventual break above 1.1139 and beyond ?

Turning back to that US BLS downward payroll revision of 818,000 jobs so far in 2024. That is simply huge folks and equates to around 100k jobs per month overstated by the BLS. So, how could they get it so wrong? Well, it is a survey based model and not based on hard data and that makes it flawed to begin with. So, in the prior update on the USD/JPY, it was noted here; that this was not god news for the dollar and indeed the USD/JPY has now given back that inverse reaction to above 146 and stocks have seemingly woken up to hard fact; that was not good news for the economy. The EUR/USD has so far resisted a move to above 1.1139 and that is hard to explain right now. Perhaps eventually the penny will drop and the Euro will press past that level and towards 1.12. If not, then it should not be going lower at any rate, because this data is not in any way positive for the US currency. The EUR/USD is currently trading at 1.1128
