Should We Be Wary of the Pound's Upside Momentum Amid Volatile Price Movements?

14.10.2022

Today's Highlights
  1. Remarks by Federal Reserve Board Member Cook
  2. France: Consumer Price Index

The previous day, the U.S. dollar became the strongest currency during U.S. trading hours after the CPI came in at 8.2%, 0.1 percentage points higher than the market forecast of 8.1%. However, as U.S. Treasury yields fell, the currency faced resistance at higher levels and lost momentum.Although the euro/dollar pair fell immediately after the CPI release, it subsequently rose to 0.9806. The pair had been trading in a range centered around 0.9700, but yesterday’s rally pushed it higher; we will be watching closely to see if it can hold the level around 0.9793.

Among European currencies, the pound trended higher, with the GBP/JPY pair rising by just under 5 yen from 162.341 to 167.2880.Technical analysis has become less effective for the GBP/JPY pair due to the large-scale tax cut plan under the new Truss administration, and the pair has been trading within a 7-yen range on the daily chart. Given the extremely volatile price action, investors should be wary of sharp swings heading into the weekend.

Today, at 15:45, France’s Consumer Price Index; at 16:00, Turkey’s Home Sales; at 18:00, the Eurozone’strade balance, at 21:30 U.S. retail sales, U.S. import price index, Canadian manufacturing shipments, and Canadian wholesale sales, at 22:00 Canadian existing home sales, at 23:00 U.S. University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index, U.S. business inventories, and remarks by U.S. Federal Reserve Governor George:Kansas City Fed President’s remarks; at 11:30 p.m., remarks by U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Cook; and at 1:15 a.m., remarks by U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Waller are scheduled. Be wary of the upward momentum of the pound, which is experiencing significant price fluctuations.
