EUR/USD on the Rise
2023.06.13 10:46
The market’s most traded currency pair climbed to 1.0800 on Tuesday.
The market has a risk appetite at the beginning of a crucial week, with the meetings of the Federal Reserve System and the European Central Bank in the foreground.
The Fed will make its interest rate decision by Wednesday night. The rate will most likely remain at 5.25% per annum. In any case, with the US inflation statistics for May expected today, the market will be able to see the complete picture.
The ECB will meet on Thursday to agree on the cost of lending. The interest rate will most likely increase by 25 basis points, reaching 4.00% per annum. It is extremely important that the ECB continues combating inflation proactively.
Note that the spread between the Fed and ECB interest rates is narrowing. This means there will be less fundamental support for the euro.
