EUR/USD looks to data, Brexit
The pair is struggling for direction today and at the same time is looking to revert three consecutive daily pullbacks, always against the backdrop of a solid sentiment surrounding the buck.
Persistent uncertainty and lack of serious progress around the Brexit negotiations continue to weigh on global sentiment as well as Italian politics, where the 2019 budget still remains in the centre of the debate.
Moving forward, the ECB will publish its Private Sector Loans and M3 Money Supply later in the morning. Across the pond, all eyes will be on another revision of the Q3 GDP, New Home Sales and the weekly report from the EIA.
