EURO-DOLLAR
EURO-DOLLAR: USD weakness in early European trade on Tuesday was sharply
reversed with some pointing to headlines that China will be pushing for the WTO
to impose sanctions on the U.S. for violating a trade dispute ruling from 2017
(although some suggested that this was already a known and the reaction may have
been somewhat overdone).
- The rate dropped, in line with cable, after the latter reacted positively to
UK wage data before choppy trade ensued on Brexit related headlines. EUR/USD
dropped back to $1.1566, from its high of $1.1644 (having met stiff resistance
between $1.1640/50).
- The rate last deals at ~$1.1590, resistance remains into $1.1650, a break to
expose $1.1680/85. Support noted at $1.1566 ahead of $1.1526.
- The ECB MonPol decision, due Thursday, headlines the EZ docket this week.
