• Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee said inflation is moving the wrong way, though the latest PCE report wasn’t entirely negative, with inflation clearly the main concern in the Fed’s mandate..

• Oil rose after a cargo vessel was hit by an unknown projectile near Oman, raising concerns over the pace of Middle East supply normalization..

•   Immediate resistance is located at 1.3221(Daily high), any close above will push the pair towards 1.3292(38.2%fib)

•  Strong support is seen at 1.3155(23.6%fib) and break below could take the pair towards 1.3071(Lower BB).
