Dollar Selling on FOMC Rate Cut Expectations
Daily Market Report ## Fundamental Analysis
EURUSD Rising Toward 1.18
Strong upward momentum with 10SMA acting as support
Targeting Round Number
EURUSD is trading in the upper 1.17s with the 10-day moving average acting as support.
We believe this is due to widespread dollar selling across the market. The dollar weakness is primarily driven by near-certain expectations of a rate cut at today and tomorrow's FOMC meeting.
The US NY Fed Manufacturing Index unexpectedly turned negative with a sharp decline, showing that economic recession is beginning to materialize in the data. Additionally, strict immigration policies combined with tariff uncertainties are casting a shadow over the entire manufacturing sector.
Looking at the chart from a medium to long-term perspective, the pair is moving within an ascending channel and approaching the upper boundary. The recent high of 1.1830 is the key level to watch for a potential breakout.
While both the US and Europe face various accumulated challenges, the euro is currently showing relative strength.
