EUR/USD trades marginally lower below 1.1600 in the European session on Friday. The pair edges down as the US Dollar rebounds slightly after Thursday’s massive profit-taking pullback. Looming US-Iran uncertainty revives the haven demand for the Greenback, while the Euro takes a breather after the hawkish ECB hike-led rally.
GBP/USD trades on the back foot around 1.3400 in the European trading hours on Friday. The UK Gross Domestic Product (GDP) declined by 0.1% in April, keeping the offered tone intact around the British Pound amid a broad US Dollar rebound.
Gold attracts some sellers near the $4,246-$4,247 region during the Asian session, stalling the previous day's solid recovery move from its lowest level since November 2025. Mixed signals regarding a potential US-Iran peace deal revive demand for the safe-haven US Dollar.
Pi Network (PI) is trading at around $0.120 after a modest recovery the previous day. Despite this recent rebound, traders should be cautious as a scheduled unlock of 14.8 million PI tokens on Friday could limit the token's recovery potential by increasing market supply. Meanwhile, the technical outlook is showing early signs of fading bearish momentum, suggesting a short-term bounce.
Warsh is starting his tenure at the Fed during a transition of sorts. Given the prior FOMC statement and the countless Fed speakers we’ve heard from since then, it seems Fed officials are in the midst of shifting toward a more neutral policy stance.
May's CPI put headline inflation at 4.2% on the year, up from 3.8% in April and the hottest reading since April 2023, while core prices rose just 0.2% on the month, undershooting the 0.3% consensus and halving April's pace.
