Eurozone inflation data continues to signal a slowdown, reducing pressure on the European Central Bank to maintain aggressive monetary policy. Meanwhile, strong U.S. labor market indicators have bolstered the Federal Reserve’s hawkish stance, yet concerns over the broader economic outlook limit the dollar’s upside. This interplay of factors has kept the EUR/USD subdued, with traders awaiting more decisive economic data to provide direction.
The lack of clear momentum suggests the pair could hover within its recent range, barring unexpected shifts in market sentiment or policy announcements. Analysts emphasize the importance of upcoming U.S. retail sales figures and eurozone industrial output data, which could offer fresh clues for short-term movements.
