Week Ahead December 12th – 16th
EUR/USD FUNDAMENTOS E TÉCNICOS
Pair closed last week’s trading session marginally higher on widening divergence between the two central banks. ECB officials on the one side are signalling more rates ahead. On the other side FED is signalling softer rate ahead. Last week’s better than expected economic releases in the US failed to give traction on the US Dollar and kept the pair hovering around monthly higher levels as traders and investors are siting on the side and waiting for this week’s rate decisions.
All traders and investors will be standby for this week’s high impact events highlighting the end for 2022, battle against inflation. The FED is due to release its monetary policy and rate decision on Wednesday. The central bank expected to hike rates by 0.25%, something that is already priced-in the pair’s exchange rate and if confirmed it will clearly signal that the FED is willing to stop hiking rates, that will result to triggering stronger selloff in US Dollar. ECB is due to release their monetary policy and rate decision on Thursday. The central bank expected to hike rates by 0.5% signalling stronger rates increases ahead in their fight against inflation.

GBP/USD FUNDAMENTOS E TÉCNICOS
Pair closed last week’s trading session marginally lower after both GBP and US Dollar lost their traction for more gains. The better than expected US economic releases failed to fuel the US Dollar as traders and investors are looking into stocks for Santa rally. Both GBP and US Dollar traders stay on the side as they are bracing for the week ahead and the rate decision from both central banks.
As for this week market participants will focus on both central bank’s rate decision. The FED is signalling softer rate hikes ahead as the BOE is failing to give any future signals regarding rate hikes. The FED expected to raise rates by 0.25% on Wednesday’s FOMC. The BOE expected to raise rates by 0.5% on Thursday’s meeting. Traders and investors will be standby ahead of both meetings. The busy economic calendar of this week will generate huge volatility.
