- Monetary policy: FED rate median is at 2.15% end of 2018 vs ECB expected to hike only 2019 Q4 -> carry on USD side
- CB balance sheet: FED BS decreasing since 2017 May, ECB still rising, tapering expected in '18 Sept
- Inflation: US Core inflation 2.1% and forecasted to 2.4% vs Eurozone 1.1% and moderate upward forecast
Cons:
- Citi WERM valuation: EUR undervalued by 20% (historically not outstanding)

Risk-events ahead:
- US inflation - June 12
- FED rate decision (hike expected) - June 13
