Upbeat comments by Fed Vice-Chair Richard Clarida
“Profit taking emerged as UST/Bund spreads widened following Clarida’s hawkish remarks. ECB member Kazaks was dovish, stating that September is too soon to update PEPP guidance.”
“EUR/USD has bounced after testing projections at 1.1750/1.1745 however upside momentum doesn’t seem to build up as the pair maintains below short-term Moving Averages.”
“Failure to cross 1.1900 can result in resumption of down move towards March low of 1.1700.”
