Dear Traders,
Following a period of subdued inflation data, EURUSD recently breached the 1.09000 mark. However, Friday's Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) report surpassed expectations, revealing over 272,000 jobs created compared to the anticipated 185,000. Consequently, EURUSD has retraced towards the key uptrend support around the 1.07800 level.
While the NFP figures are significant, it's crucial to recognize that they are just one piece of the puzzle for the Federal Reserve's decision-making process. Another critical aspect will be the forthcoming Consumer Price Index (CPI). Should the CPI data indicate a softer inflationary trend, we anticipate further weakness in the USD, potentially propelling EURUSD upwards from the support zone at 1.07800.
Conversely, if the CPI surprises with higher-than-expected inflation, we may witness a break in the EURUSD downtrend, possibly leading to new lows.
Remember to trade cautiously and stay informed.
Best regards,
Joe
