Danske Bank FX Strategy Research notes that EUR/USD has moved very far, very rapidly in a very short period on the ongoing accelerated repricing of both Europe and the US.

“The difference in the economic surprise indices between the euro zone and the US is at the highest level since spring 2015 and PMIs in the euro zone have been marching higher consistently since September 2016, while the cycle in China and the US is faltering. Eventually, there will be a spill-over from the IP cycle in China and US into the euro zone as there always is, but for now, the euro zone is shining,” Danske clarifies.
