INTRODUCTION


Currency markets remain under pressure as major pairs navigate a challenging environment driven by monetary policy shifts, geopolitical risks, and economic data releases. The US Dollar (USD) continues to strengthen, exerting downward pressure on the Euro (EUR), British Pound (GBP), Japanese Yen (JPY), and Australian Dollar (AUD). Market focus now shifts to upcoming Federal Reserve and central bank meetings, which are expected to set the tone for the currency markets in the weeks ahead.


EUR/USD Remains Fragile Near 1.0460


The EUR/USD pair faces persistent bearish momentum, trading near a three-week low of 1.0455 during Friday’s Asian session. The pair’s decline is fueled by a dovish European Central Bank (ECB) stance and weak Eurozone economic performance. On Thursday, the ECB implemented its fourth rate cut this year, signaling potential further easing in 2025.

In contrast, expectations of a less dovish Federal Reserve (Fed) have supported the US Dollar. Rising US Treasury bond yields, which reached a new monthly high on Thursday, add to the USD’s strength. Geopolitical risks, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict and tensions in the Middle East, further bolster the greenback’s safe-haven appeal.

Key Factors Driving EUR/USD:

  • ECB Policy Divergence: ECB’s dovish outlook weighs on the Euro.
  • US Treasury Yields: Higher yields sustain USD momentum.
  • Geopolitical Risks: Safe-haven demand for USD pressures EUR.
