For the last months the US economy seemed to be recovering. With the positive economics data FED did a tapering in with 10b and then with 10b more. But after the December weak US job data with only 75k new jobs and expectation of around 195k, today we saw a second month in a row that the expectation is not met with actual 113k and expectation 185k. Is it time for the FED to pause the tapering? The next FOMC meeting is in March, so we'll have a lot of economics data till then, but I'll have a close look at the NFP data for February, the Retail Sales and the inflation. If the data is weak again I'll short the US dollar significantly in March.

Good Luck!
