ISM Manufacturing PMI

[oxygen.60]

The figures for the past two months have been consistently above the forecast figures and I’m thinking that if the next figure tops around 61.0 this would further strengthen the USD. Any recommendations before they release the actual figure on June 1, 2010?

I believe that we'll get a better-than-consensus report for May's ISM PMI but in June it will be down due to affect of the BP's oil failure and the connected half of the arctic shelf drilling.

AUD is already a good buy and better than expected real estate reports would increase its attractiveness.
