EURUSD Price Action and Key Economic Releases
The EUR/USD forex pair, often referred to as “Fiber,” is a popular trading instrument in the forex market, representing the exchange rate between the Euro and the US Dollar. Today’s economic calendar features critical data points that could influence the EUR USD exchange rate. The Core CPI and CPI releases are expected to provide insights into inflationary pressures in the US economy, with forecasts of 0.2% and 0.1% respectively. Higher-than-expected inflation figures could bolster the USD as it may lead the Federal Reserve to maintain a hawkish stance on interest rates. Additionally, the unemployment claims report, forecasted at 236K, will shed light on the health of the US labor market. Lower-than-expected claims could further support the USD. Other factors include speeches from various FOMC members, potentially offering clues on future monetary policy directions. Traders should monitor these releases closely as they will likely create volatility in the EUR/USD pair.
