Details of the economic calendar from May 11
Inflation in the United States slowed for the first time since August 2021. The April consumer price index was 8.3%, falling from a record high of 8.5%. The trend is positive, but an even stronger decline in inflation was predicted. As a result, the market reacted with a further strengthening of the dollar positions, as the Fed's rhetoric is unlikely to change with the current inflation rate.
