EU Session Bullet Report – USD mixed as rally lost momentum

USD continues to be weak into the Asian session especially against commodity currencies and GBP. Versus EUR, JPY and CHF it still manages to sustain some losses. The recent USD rally has lost momentum, despite reassurances from FED members that interest rates will likely rise in the US in December. It seems that the market has now priced in this fact, and risk could be to the downside for the USD with any comment or news that might put this probability in jeopardy. It seems that market participants are relatively unsure about the timing of another hike. And because of that, the dollar index is facing some pressure ahead of 100.39 key resistance level.

There are no major U.S. data to be published today, only PMI existing home sales, however Fed speakers including Bullard, Dudley and Williams are expected to talk. As December ‘liftoff’ seems to be possible, the potential indications of the pace of tightening next year and beyond would be focused. Today, speech by ECB President Draghi and other Executive Board members, including Coeure, Praet and Constancio is expected. Germany and EZ release PMI numbers.
