Tough Times for USD

Today were not the best times for USD bulls as the Factory Orders indicator increased only by 0.3% (against 0.6% expected). Low growth of manufacturing orders means a slower growth of overall economy, while U.S. economy is already slow as a turtle with 2007 GDP estimated at around 1%. Such bad macroeconomic data will push EUR/USD up, even if technical analysis will cry for a correction. On the other side, previous Factory Orders indicator was revised towards better side — 4.1% from 3.5% which might cause some support for dollar on Forex.
