Week ahead November 7th – 11th
FUNDAMENTOS Y ASPECTOS TÉCNICOS DEL EUR/USD
Pair closed last week’s trading session unchanged after a high volatile weekly session. The FED increased rates by 0.75% as it was widely expected and this had limited impact on the pair. Initial reaction was a downside move but not long lived. The speech conference of FED’s chairman, Jerome Powell, was taken negative by markets and triggered a selloff in the US dollar that helped the pair recover all lost ground all the way during the end of the week. FED has announced the end of its aggressive rate hike policy highlighted that any future rate hikes will be limited and in line with the inflation stability. On the other hand, ECB’s president Christine Lagarde comments, were taken as hawkish by markets, as she highlighted that the central bank will be detached from FED’s policy and will continue its rate hike policy until inflation will come back to its normal levels and exchange rate of EURUSD will be closely monetary.
As for this week market participants will mainly focus on the economic calendar releases with the main ones in focus the retail sales and the inflation numbers. The lack of any high impact central banks’ releases will keep this week’s session more over on the truck of last week’s momentum. Few central banks’ officials are due to speak during the week, although, the impact of their speech will be limited.
