EUR/USD at Two Months Low

U.S. dollar rallied to its two months low at 1.3320 today. Surprisingly the United States Trade Balance Deficit for April 2007 was reported almost 5 billion dollars lower than predicted $58.5 billion, whereas March Trade Balance Deficit was revised to $62.4 billion (almost a billion lower than previous value). Trade Balance Deficit tightening was caused by both lower import and higher export which is a very good sign for the U.S. economics. But this wasn't the main reason for today's EUR/USD correction, the main reason was the higher yield for U.S. bonds which broke through 5.00% yesterday and now many long term investors need to buy dollars to get into the bonds.
