Dear Traders,
As we gear up for the week ahead, our attention zeroes in on EURUSD, where we anticipate a selling opportunity to manifest around the 1.06600 zone. EURUSD continues its downward trajectory, presently navigating a correction phase as it approaches the pivotal support and resistance area at 1.06600.
Delving into the fundamental underpinnings, recent economic indicators paint a picture of USD strength. The latest Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) data revealed robust job creation, with March recording an impressive increase of 303k jobs compared to the previous month's 212k, surpassing market expectations. This surge in employment underscores the resilience of the US economy.
Furthermore, examining the Consumer Price Index (CPI) trend reveals a consistent uptick in inflationary pressures. Over recent months, CPI data has shown a steady climb:
Mar 12, 2024: 3.5%
Feb 13, 2024: 3.2%
Jan 11, 2024: 3.0%
Dec 12, 2023: 2.8%
Nov 14, 2023: 2.5%
This sustained inflationary trend has heightened concerns and could prompt a more hawkish stance from the Federal Reserve as policymakers aim to curb inflation risks by tightening monetary policy.
Considering these developments, the Federal Reserve might pivot towards a more hawkish stance in response to the buoyant US economy and escalating inflation. Such a stance could further bolster the US dollar, exerting downward pressure on EURUSD.
Therefore, as we monitor EURUSD for a potential selling opportunity around 1.06600, it's imperative to remain vigilant of the numerical metrics and their implications on market sentiment and direction.
Wishing you prudent and prosperous trading,
Joe
