EUR Extends Lower as European Parliamentary Election Results Build Pressure

FOREX
  • Single currency weakness is garnering much attention to start the week as the post-NFP declines for EURUSD have built momentum and have been exacerbated by heightened political concerns.
  • Weak results in the European parliamentary elections and the decision by French president Macron to call a snap election have prompted broad based Euro weakness. EURUSD traded sharply lower Friday and the pair has weakened 0.5% again today. Price has breached the 20-day EMA, and this has been followed by a break of support at 1.0788, the May 30 low.
  • Wednesday’s key US CPI data and the June FOMC meeting will naturally take focus for EURUSD, however, the independent Euro weakness thrusts multiple EUR crosses into the spotlight, that have been breaching/approaching significant technical levels.
