The EUR\/USD<\/strong> pair continued its upward momentum on Tuesday, edging toward 1.1645<\/strong> in the early European session. The move reflects growing confidence that the US Federal Reserve<\/strong> will deliver an interest rate cut at its final policy meeting of 2025, pressuring the US Dollar while offering support to the Euro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Market participants are positioning ahead of key US data releases scheduled for later in the day, including the ADP Employment Change four-week average<\/strong> and the JOLTS Job Openings<\/strong> covering September and October. These indicators may shape short-term volatility for USD pairs as investors gauge the health of the US labor market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n The Federal Reserve is widely projected to lower interest rates by 25 basis points<\/strong>, which would bring the benchmark range down to 3.50%\u20133.75%<\/strong>. According to the CME FedWatch Tool<\/strong>, markets now assign nearly a 90% probability<\/strong> to a quarter-point cut, suggesting strong conviction in the direction of monetary policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Traders will pay close attention to Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s press conference<\/strong> and the updated Summary of Economic Projections (SEP)<\/strong>, particularly the closely watched \u201cdot plot.\u201d<\/strong> While a rate cut typically weakens the Dollar, many analysts warn that the Fed could deliver a \u201chawkish cut\u201d<\/strong> by signaling fewer future reductions. Such a stance may provide temporary support for the Greenback and could limit upside potential for EUR\/USD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n European fundamentals also contributed to the pair\u2019s rise. Germany surprised markets with stronger-than-expected data, offering a welcome boost to sentiment toward the Euro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Industrial Production in Germany rose 1.8% MoM in October<\/strong>, outperforming both the previous month\u2019s 1.3% increase and expectations of a 0.4% decline<\/strong>, according to Destatis. The rebound suggests that Europe\u2019s largest economy may be gaining traction after months of stagnation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the broader Eurozone, confidence indicators also improved. The Sentix Investor Confidence Index<\/strong> climbed to -6.2 in December<\/strong>, up from -7.4 in November<\/strong>, signaling a gradual recovery in investor outlook across the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The EUR\/USD pair continued its upward momentum on Tuesday, edging toward 1.1645 in the early European session.
