U.S. Data Could Set Tone for EUR/USD Moves -- Market Talk

Dow Jones01-03

0754 GMT - The ISM report on business manufacturing purchasing managers indices will, due at 1500 GMT, will kick off days of publications of important U.S. data which should set the tone for EUR/USD, says Jesper Fjaerstedt, senior analyst in FX strategy at Danske Bank Research. Another potential driver is the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee's minutes of the December meeting, due at 1900 GMT. The euro remains below 1.10, having fallen sharply on Tuesday amid souring risk sentiment and rising U.S. yields, he says. "We think the move is fair as we have found it hard to fully justify the drop in U.S. rates and rally in EUR/USD from the macro-monetary policy backdrop." EUR/USD rises 0.2% to 1.0960.
