USD hits an air pocket after consumer sentiment numbers

The US consumer numbers were released about an hour ago. They came out slightly below expectations and the USD fell about 20-30 pips across the board. The numbers weren´t really bad, just a two points miss. Lat month´s numbers were revised higher and at 89 this indicator is still at very high levels. Still, the USD bulls ducked and EUR/USD broke above 1.13. It already retreated back below that level so we´ll see if the USD bulls will reactivate again, but with London closing in an hour I doubt it. 

Meanwhile, USD/JPY broke below 109
