FX Daily: Iran fall-out coming home to roost in EUR/USD

The desk sees potential weakness in the EUR/USD pair, driven by geopolitical risks stemming from Iran that could affect European economic stability. As noted by ING Economics, these tensions not only have immediate ramifications for European energy prices but could also heighten inflationary pressures, thus complicating the European Central Bank's (ECB) monetary policies. Current consensus places the EUR/USD at 1.1500, with projections ranging from 1.1300 to 1.2000 over the next several quarters. With no major data releases upcoming, traders may need to rely on geopolitical developments to gauge market impact.

EUR/USD extends the consolidation amid widely expected ECB hikes, US-Iran stalemate

Lead — The EUR/USD pair remains in a consolidation phase as traders await clearer signals from both the ECB and the Federal Reserve. Per the full note from Giuseppe Dellamotta, the US dollar has strengthened slightly amid geopolitical tensions and higher-than-expected inflation data, while the euro faces pressure despite anticipated ECB rate hikes. The market is pricing in an 87% probability of a June rate hike from the ECB, but the desk sees limited room for the euro to rally based solely on interest rate expectations. Upcoming US Retail Sales and Jobless Claims data will be crucial in shaping market sentiment.
