Will the euro rebound following the ECB meeting? That’s something to watch for.

14.12.2023

Today's Highlights
  1. Europe: ECB Policy Rate and Statement Release
  2. Switzerland: SMI Policy Rate and Statement Release

In the U.S. currency market the previous day, following the FOMC’s announcement that it would keep the policy rate unchanged at 5.5%, Fed Chair Powell stated, “We discussed the timing of rate cuts at today’s meeting” and “The policy rate is near its peak in this cycle.” As a result, the U.S. dollar weakened against all currencies.The EUR/USD pair rose from 1.0773 to 1.0896, gaining approximately 120 pips. From a technical perspective, since the EUR/USD has been rising from the 200-period simple moving average (SMA) on the 4-hour chart, it will be important to monitor whether the upward trend continues for the time being.

Ahead of today’s ECB policy rate announcement, the euro fell against the yen. The euro/yen pair dropped 3 yen, from 157.471 to 154.558.It has continued to test lower levels during today’s Asian trading session. Technically, the EUR/JPY pair is currently trading just below the daily 200-day simple moving average (SMA); a break below the 200-day SMA would mean the loss of a major support level, so traders should remain highly vigilant regarding price movements following today’s ECB announcement.

Today, at 15:30, India’s Wholesale Price Index; at 16:00, Sweden’s Consumer Price Index; at 16:30, Switzerland’s Import Producer Prices; at 17:30, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) will announce its SMI policy rate and statement;at 6:00 PM, remarks by SNB Governor Jordan; at 9:00 PM, the Bank of England’s policy rate and statement; at 10:15 PM, the European Central Bank’sECB policy rate and statement, 22:30 U.S. initial jobless claims, Canada’s manufacturing sales, U.S. retail sales, and U.S. import price index, 22:45 remarks by ECB President Lagarde, and 24:00 U.S. business inventories.I will be closely monitoring the ECB announcement to see if the euro recovers.
