I like the dollar higher. There's relatively sub-par growth out of Europe, and the U.S. is humming along.

The reigning theme has been the interest rate differentials that have propelled the dollar higher and the market thinks that theme won't be unwound any time soon. People are continuing to buy dollars on that theme.

It was a somewhat weak rally in the euro anyway and it wasn't a move that was substantiated by the trade figures.

The longer-term trend for the dollar is higher for the balance of the year. The economy is doing fine.

People were dismissive of the data. They are continuing to buy dollars as we speak.

The minutes have fueled the fire for the dollar bears. The Fed is probably close to ending its tightening cycle.
