Inflation in the United States fell to an annual rate of 5% in March, the lowest level since May 2021. Note that analysts had anticipated that inflation in March would be 5.2%. The difference between the expected and actual figure caused speculative fluctuations in financial markets.
Even though inflation is falling fast, economists believe that the Federal Reserve will still raise rates at the next meeting, as indicated by the minutes of the March meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee, published after the inflation data.
EUR/USD reached the 1.1000 psychological level during the rapid inertial movement. Given the latest price changes, there is a full recovery of the euro against the decline in February. This movement indicates a prevailing upward mood among market participants.
GBP/USD reached the 1.2500 resistance level, against which a corrective move appeared last week. The full recovery of the value of the pound sterling from the recent decline indicates an upward trend among traders.
The UK industrial production data was published, where the recession rate slowed down from -3.2% to -3.1%. The strongest impact was the revision of the previous figures from -4.3% to -3.2%. The pound reacted positively to the industrial data.
Eurozone industrial output is also expected, where growth is forecast to range from 0.9% to 1.5%. This is a positive factor which may strengthen the euro.
The U.S. jobless claims will also be published, where a slight decrease is anticipated in the overall indicator. Details of the statistics indicate that continuing claims could fall from 1,823,000 to 1,814,000, and initial claims could rise from 228,000 to 232,000.
Time targeting:
EU Industrial Production – 09:00 UTC
U.S. Jobless Claims – 12:30 UTC
In the current situation, a technical signal appeared on the market that the euro was overbought in the intraday period, which could lead to stagnation or a pullback. However, if the price remains stable above the 1.1000 level, then there is a possibility of continuation of the medium-term upward trend. In this case, traders can ignore the overbought technical signal and continue the further growth of the euro.
It can be assumed that a stable price retention above the 1.2500 level will prolong the medium-term upward trend. As for the stagnation or pullback relative to the resistance level, it is likely to become a short-term price change.
