The Euro Holds Its Ground, While the Pound Resumes Decline Following Weak UK Data
Yesterday, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde stated that the ECB had taken a wait-and-see approach, leaving interest rates unchanged following its meeting. The market had expected more decisive signals from the ECB regarding future policy, especially in light of declining inflation in the eurozone. Although Lagarde acknowledged that inflation had returned to target, she emphasized that the situation remains uncertain and that more data is needed before making any significant decisions—this cautious stance disappointed traders who had hoped for a more aggressive approach to monetary easing.
This morning, strong data from Germany may trigger the buying of EUR/USD. Figures are expected for the IFO Business Climate Index, the Current Assessment Index, and the Expectations Index. A report on eurozone private sector lending will also be released. An increase in the IFO index — especially if accompanied by improvements in the current assessment and expectations — could become a strong driver for the euro. Traders interpret such data as a sign of a strong and stable German economy, which in turn supports the euro. Positive lending figures would also boost optimism, signaling rising investment and consumer activity. Conversely, weaker-than-expected data could lead to euro sell-offs.
If the data aligns with economists' forecasts, it's best to rely on the Mean Reversion strategy. If the data comes in significantly above or below expectations, the Momentum strategy will likely be more effective.
