HUNGARY
EURHUF trades with a slight upward bias this morning, after posting its lowest level since April 2022 Tuesday. Price action remains below previously noted support and bear trigger at 369.47, the Apr 18 low. A continuation of a move lower would open 366.41, the Mar 30 2022 low, and beyond.

Minister Navracsics said “We are close to an agreement” on frozen funds.
  • Positive news on fund disbursements could provide the NBH further room to begin easing the O/N deposit rate at next week’s rate setting meeting after yesterday’s GDP data showed the economy contracting for a third consecutive quarter, despite the figures beating market consensus of a larger drop.
