On a month over month basis, headline CPI was unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>This missed estimates of a 0.1% increase. Core inflation rate rose 0.1%, falling short of the 0.2% increase. The US dollar weakened on the news. Headline inflation slipped to 1.7% on the year following the latest release.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>EURUSD Jumps on the Back of a Weaker USD<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The euro maintained the bullish momentum. The currency pair rose to a three-week high, briefly testing 1.1091. The gains come as the EURUSD has been trading below this resistance level over the past few weeks. Further momentum to the upside could see the common currency breaking past the current resistance level. The next upside target is at 1.1140.<\/p><div id=\"inves-2545671952\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/EURUSDH4-1110.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-157344\" src=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/EURUSDH4-1110.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/EURUSDH4-1110.png 800w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/EURUSDH4-1110-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/EURUSDH4-1110-768x384.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Sterling Gains on Brexit Optimism<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The pound sterling posted gains on Thursday after a meeting between the UK and Irish leaders.
