EUR/USD may be gently making its way to the March lows at 1.0515/0530 – ING

Economists at ING discuss EUR/USD outlook for the day ahead.

Deteriorated Eurozone’s data to keep EUR/USD on the soft side

“EUR/USD has quietly slipped below support at 1.0700/1.0720 and may be gently making its way to the March lows at 1.0515/0530.”

“For today, the Eurozone focus will be on the release of industrial and consumer confidence figures for May. Consensus expects some further deterioration here and if so this should keep EUR/USD on the soft side.”

“We will also hear from a raft of ECB speakers today. Expect more hawkish rhetoric especially in advance of the May eurozone CPI data on Thursday. Consensus expects core eurozone CPI to edge lower to 5.5% YoY in May. Another upside surprise here – feeding the sticky inflation narrative – warns that investors could return to pricing a 4.00% ECB deposit rate.”
