All Eyes on Germany’s Fourth-Quarter GDP: Will It Trigger Moves in the Euro?

24.02.2023

Today's Highlights
  1. Germany's Fourth-Quarter GDP
  2. University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index

The previous day, the U.S. dollar showed a slight upward trend against the euro, causing the EUR/USD pair to decline. The EUR/USD fell by approximately 50 pips from 1.0628 to 1.0577.Continuing from the previous day, it hit a new low for the month. The EUR/USD is currently trading just below the 75-day moving average (MA) on the daily chart, with the daily RSI hovering around 36. On the 4-hour chart, the pair is midway in its descent from the upper boundary of the downtrend channel toward the lower boundary, so we will be watching closely to see if today’s U.S. economic data releases cause the euro to fall.

Among European currencies, the Swiss franc was the weakest from European trading hours through U.S. trading hours. The CHF/JPY pair fell from 145.031 to 143.680.The decline continued after the pair broke below the 75-period moving average on the 4-hour chart. From a technical perspective, the CHF/JPY pair has continued to rebound to the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level on the daily chart, so it will be worth watching whether the yen weakens further depending on economic indicators.

Today, at 16:00: Germany’s Q4 GDP and GfK Consumer Confidence Index; at 16:45: France’s Consumer Confidence Index and remarks by Nagel, President of the German Federal Bank; at 22:30: U.S. Personal Income and the U.S. Core PCE Deflator;at 24:00, U.S. New Home Sales and the U.S. University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index; at 24:15, remarks by U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Jefferson; remarks by U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Mester:President of the Cleveland Fed; at 25:30, remarks by UK MPC Member Tenreiro and U.S. St. Louis Fed President Bullard; at 27:30, remarks by U.S. Boston Fed President Collins and U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Waller are scheduled.We will be watching closely to see if the release of Germany’s fourth-quarter GDP data triggers any movement in the euro.
