Week Ahead November 6 – 10

EURUSD pair closed last week’s trading session higher on disappointing non-farm payroll number from the US. The FED maintained interest rates unchanged as it was widely expected, Although, the press conference by FED’s chairman Jerome Powell was taken as dovish by market players and this triggered a selloff in US Dollar. The speech of Hezbollah leader, also gave some relief in the markets as he comments that Hezbollah will not join the war between Israel and Palestine, meaning that, at least for now the war will not spread in the region.

As for this week traders and investors will focus on the economic releases from both sides, the US and the EU. As FED’s Powell said in his press conference, the next rate decision will be solely depended on the US economic performance. FED’s Powell is due to speak on Wednesday.

GBPUSD pair closed last week’s trading session higher on disappointing non-farm payroll number from the US. The FED maintained interest rates unchanged as it was widely expected, Although, the press conference by FED’s chairman Jerome Powell was taken as dovish by market players and this triggered a selloff in US Dollar. The BOE also maintained the interest rate unchanged, although, the press conference was somehow hawkish as the central bank kept the door open for more rate hikes as inflation stills persist and pointing higher, and this boosted demand for GBP and helped the pair to rally on the upside.  The speech of Hezbollah leader, also gave some relief in the markets as he comments that Hezbollah will not join the war between Israel and Palestine, meaning that, at least for now the war will not spread in the region.

As for this week traders and investors will mostly focus on the speeches of FED’s Powell and BOE’s Governor Bailey. The light economic calendar from both sides, is not expected to generate any volatility.
