EUR/USD Rebounds from Multi-Month Low, Eyes 1.0800 Ahead of Flash PMIs
The EUR/USD pair is showing signs of recovery during Thursday’s Asian session, breaking a three-day losing streak that saw it hit its lowest level since early July, near the 1.0760 region. Spot prices have edged closer to the 1.0800 level in recent hours, buoyed by a slight pullback in the US Dollar (USD). However, bullish traders should exercise caution due to underlying market conditions.
A retreat in US Treasury yields from a three-month high has led to some profit-taking on the USD, following its recent rally to levels last seen in late July. Still, the expectation that the Federal Reserve (Fed) may implement only modest rate cuts, coupled with investor caution ahead of the November 5 US Presidential election, could provide support for the USD as a safe-haven currency. Additionally, dovish signals from the European Central Bank (ECB) are likely to limit any significant upward movement for the EUR/USD pair.
Eurozone inflation fell to 1.7% in September, dipping below the ECB’s 2% target for the first time since June 2021. This reinforces the ECB’s view that inflationary pressures are easing and supports the likelihood of further policy easing. On Wednesday, ECB official Mario Centeno noted that downside risks are prominent for both growth and inflation, hinting that a 50 basis point rate cut in December is under consideration. Similarly, ECB’s Bostjan Vasle highlighted data suggesting potential delays in the expected recovery in growth.
