- EUR/USD edges higher after snapping two-day downtrend at 11-week low.
- Euro ignores German exporters’ pessimism amid hawkish comments from French FinMin.
- US Dollar fails to extend Jackson Hole inspired gains as traders await top-tier inflation, employment data.
- Consumer sentiment figures from Germany, US will entertain intraday traders.
EUR/USD holds onto the week-start recovery gains around 1.0820 during the early hours of Tuesday’s Asian session. In doing so, the Euro pair cheers the US Dollar’s pullback while tracing the downbeat Treasury bond yields. It’s worth noting, however, that the mixed concerns about Germany and cautious mood ahead of this week’s top-tier inflation and employment data from the US and Eurozone checks the pair buyers.
US Dollar Index (DXY) dropped on Monday after posting the six-week uptrend even as the United States mid-tier activity data improves. That said, the US 10-year Treasury bond yields dropped three basis points (bps) to 4.20% and the two-year counterpart declined half a percent to 5.5% at the latest.
On Monday, Germany’s highly influential IFO institute published a survey of exporters and cited the deteriorating morale in August due to weak global demand. The poll also mentioned, “More and more companies are also complaining about being less able to compete at the global level.”
On the contrary, French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire ruled out any reduction in interest rates in the coming months. The policymaker also said, “We also need to address inflation pressure in the services sector.”
It should be noted that the US Dallas Fed Manufacturing Business Index improved to -17.2 for August versus -21.6 expected and -20.0 prior. It’s worth noting that the details of the activity gauge were mixed as the new orders and prices paid for raw materials increased but the finished goods prices eased.
Above all, the improvement in the market’s sentiment, mainly backed by China, joined the Fed officials’ inability to please markets with major hawkish surprise seem to weigh on the US Treasury bond yields and the Greenback. However, looming economic concerns about the Old Continent keep the EUR/USD bears hopeful as the top-tier inflation numbers from the bloc and the US for August loom, together with the US employment report.
Moving on, Germany’s GfK Consumer Confidence Survey for September will become the immediate catalyst for the EUR/USD pair and may please the buyers in a case of matching the -24.3 expectations, versus -24.4 prior. Following that, the US Conference Board’s (CB) Consumer Confidence Index for August, expected at 116.2 versus prior 117.00, will entertain the intraday traders
