Euro and Pound Retain All Prerequisites for Further Growth
The single European currency showed virtually no reaction to yesterday's meeting of European Central Bank officials, during which another interest rate cut was announced. In her speech, ECB President Christine Lagarde emphasized that the economic outlook for the eurozone remains uncertain due to the unpredictability of U.S. actions, which threatens slowing GDP growth. For this reason, the meeting participants unanimously supported the decision to cut the rate. Lagarde also noted that while most indicators suggest inflation is nearing the desired 2% target, the impact of the newly introduced tariffs is still difficult to assess.
Today, consolidation is expected, with minor fluctuations within yesterday's range. Traders will likely adopt a wait-and-see approach, anticipating more substantial market drivers. Attention will probably shift toward news from overseas, where trade policy continues to influence global markets.
Overall, the broader market outlook still favors further euro appreciation. On one hand, the ECB's rate cut should have put pressure on the euro, but this did not materialize. On the other hand, concerns over slowing global economic growth limit investor optimism, but this benefits the euro, as increasing attention is now focused on the weakening U.S. dollar, driven by Trump's actions.
Today's trade balance figures from Italy are unlikely to have any meaningful impact.
The Mean Reversion strategy is preferred if the data matches economists' expectations. If the data significantly exceeds or falls short of expectations, the Momentum strategy is the most effective approach.
