EUR/USD flat lines above 1.0800 as traders await fresh catalysts
EUR/USD trades flat near 1.0810 in Tuesday’s early Asian session.
The rising bets that the Fed might not opt into aggressive easing might boost the USD.
ECB’s Wunsch said there is no urgency for the ECB to speed up policy easing.
The EUR/USD pair holds steady around 1.0810 on the consolidation of the US Dollar (USD) during the early Asian session on Tuesday. Investors await Germany’s GfK Consumer Confidence data, which is due later on Tuesday.
The rising expectation of a slower pace of US Federal Reserve (Fed) rate cuts is likely to support the Greenback in the near term. Nonetheless, market players will take more cues from the key US economic data this week, including the advanced Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for the third quarter (Q3), ISM Manufacturing PMI, inflation and employment data.
Meanwhile, traders will closely monitor the US presidential election on November 5. According to polling site FiveThirtyEight, Trump's possibility of winning the US election has increased to 52% compared to 48% for Vice President Kamala Harris. The uncertainty surrounding this key event might lift the safe-haven currency like the USD against the Euro (EUR).
