Euro Strength Finally Manifested

I have been monitoring the euro versus U.S. bonds versus S&P.

U.S. bonds have been very volatile, one day they go up and the other day they go down. There is no consistency whatsoever in U.S. bonds (green triangles). The euro has been relatively flat against the U.S. dollar, but it posted the biggest increase since I started monitoring it the previous month (blue dots). I hope this will be the first sign of euro strength, which means commodities could start rising. The S&P started to go down lately, but today it was pretty bullish.

There is no decoupling yet: when the U.S. dollar goes down, stocks go up.
