U.S. Dollar
U.S. Dollar Index gains some ground as traders react to RCM/TIPP Economic Optimism Index report. The report indicated that RCM/TIPP Economic Optimism Index declined from 43.2 in April to 41.8 in May, compared to analyst consensus of 44.1. Treasury yields are moving lower, but this move does not put any pressure on the American currency.
In case U.S. Dollar Index settles above the recent highs at 105.30, it will move towards the nearest resistance level at 105.75 – 106.00.
EUR/USD
EUR/USD is mostly flat after the release of the Euro Area Retail Sales report. The report showed that Retail Sales increased by 0.8% month-over-month in March, compared to analyst consensus of 0.6%.
In case EUR/USD climbs above the resistance at 1.0785 – 1.0800, it will move towards the next resistance level at 1.0870 – 1.0885.
GBP/USD
GBP/USD pulls back as traders focus on the Halifax House Price Index report, which showed that house prices increased by 0.1% month-over-month in April. On a year-over-year basis, house prices grew by 1.1%.
Currently, GBP/USD is trying to settle below the support at 1.2530 – 1.2550. In case this attempt is successful, GBP/USD will move towards the next support level at 1.2425 – 1.2450.

USD/JPY
