The pound continues to reach new highs, but there are concerns regarding the euro, especially after recent comments made by European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde. Despite her statements, which should have supported the currency, the euro has not reacted positively.
Lagarde noted that the eurozone economy is facing exceptional shocks related to trade, defense, and climate issues. These could lead to increased inflation volatility and raise the risk of prolonged price growth. This implies a more cautious approach to lowering interest rates in the future. However, as indicated on the chart, the euro has largely disregarded these remarks.
In contrast, recent U.S. inflation data raises doubts about the possibility of maintaining current interest rates, which should have weakened the dollar and bolstered confidence in the euro, but that did not occur.
Today, we can expect data from the eurozone's industrial sector and Italy's quarterly unemployment rate. This leaves little room for the euro to gain support. Traders are likely to take a wait-and-see approach, carefully analyzing the new data and considering its potential impact on the ECB's monetary policy.
These factors may be further compounded by overall instability in global markets, driven by geopolitical tensions and concerns about slowing economic growth worldwide.
If the data aligns with economists' expectations, it is advisable to use a Mean Reversion strategy. In contrast, if the data greatly exceeds or falls short of expectations, the Momentum strategy is recommended.
