章节 10  EURUSD: EUR Dropped Slightly Due to Hawkish Meeting Minutes(7.06)

Fundamentals

During Thursday's (July 6th) Asian session, EUR/USD shocked downward, and it is currently trading near 1.0842. Overnight, the Fed released the minutes of the June meeting, showing that almost all Fed officials agreed that there may be further tightening of policy. In addition, the market expected the Fed may raise the interest rate by 25bps at the end of the two-day policy meeting on July 26th, and the possibility is 88.7%. Meanwhile, hawkish remarks pushed up the USDX, and the EUR fell back under slight pressure against the USD. The next U.S. economic data on Thursday and Friday may pose a greater downside risk to the euro. Currently, the market's attention has shifted to the upcoming U.S. Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS), ADP private employment data, and weekly initial jobless claims report, as well as the Nonfarm Payrolls report to be released on Friday. If the data supports the USD, EURUSD will plummet to 1.075 or even lower!
