FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Speculative traders pared back overall EUR shorts according to latest IMM data. EUR short positions were decreased by 25% from a week earlier to reach a net of $8.6 billion as of Tuesday. However, analysts still believe there is high risks of a new increase on EUR shorts by the spec community; according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch, "interest-rate differentials continue to move broadly against the EUR, and indeed a simple analysis of two-year swap rates suggests a value of EUR/USD closer to 1.20 than 1.30."
