June 30th – July 4th
EURUSD pair closed last week’s trading session higher on easing geopolitics mainly on Israel-Iran ceasefire agreement. Trump’s decision to change FED’s chairman Powell was taken negative by markets and added more downside pressure on US Dollar as FED may lose its independence. By the end of the week the positive US PCE helped the US Dollar to gather some strength giving a pose for now on its downside pressure.
As for this week, traders and investors will mainly focus on the economic indicators mainly the US Nonfarm payrolls due to be released on Thursday due to Friday’s 4th of July market holidays. As we are writing this report, the US Senate is voting for Trump’s tax bill. The outcome of the voting will generate some volatility in the markets. From the Euro side, the scheduled speeches of ECB’s president Lagarde will be closely followed by traders in order to manage their positions on the pair.
