EUR/USD is gaining strength, but the recovery is very slight

EURUSD:

EUR/USD was supported in the market on Wednesday, taking the pair on a new course towards 1.0600 in the middle of the weekly trading session. The bullish bounce in the market was mainly due to investors taking a step away from recent dollar buying pressure, rather than any intrinsic strength in the euro itself.

Wednesday’s data list included a wide range of U.S. economic indicators before stock exchanges close for the Thanksgiving holiday on Thursday, followed by shortened trading hours on Friday. U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) rose by an expected 2.8% on an annualized basis in the third quarter, coming as a surprise to no one and having little impact on investor momentum. The core Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index (PCEPI) accelerated to 2.8% for the year ended October, also meeting expectations. While rising inflation readings are usually bad for market expectations for future rate cuts, the upward movement was widely expected, and the monthly reading’s persistence at 0.3% m/m helped to portray that the surge in prices was a thing of the past.

On Friday, traders will be eyeing preliminary European Union inflation data, the harmonized consumer price index (HICP). EU inflation is forecast to rise in the near term, further aggravating the European Central Bank (ECB) as ECB policymakers struggle to find the words to maintain investor confidence in the lopsided European economy.

Trade recommendation: Watching the level of 1.0600, trading mainly with Sell orders
