After posting strong gains on Friday, the EUR/USD pair started the new week in a calm manner and continues to move sideways below 1.1800 during the American trading hours. As of writing, the pair was down 0.15% on the day at 1.1775.

DXY edges modestly higher on Monday

In the absence of high-tier macroeconomic data releases and fundamental drivers, the USD's market valuation is driving EUR/USD's movements on Monday. Supported by the risk-off flows, the US Dollar Index (DXY) is staying in the positive territory above 92.60 in the second half of the day.

Nevertheless, the more-than-2% decline witnessed in the benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield is limiting DXY's upside and helping EUR/USD consolidate its losses.

On Tuesday, second-quarter GDP data from the euro area will be looked upon for fresh impetus. Investors expect the eurozone economy to expand by 13.7% on a yearly basis. Later in the day, July Retail Sales and Industrial Production data will be featured in the US economic docket.

Meanwhile, the latest CFTC Positioning report revealed that net longs in the EUR declined to the lowest level in more than a year.

AUD/USD stays bid above 0.7100 on Australian trade data, Mideast optimism

USD/JPY hovers near the 160.00 intervention threshold on Mideast tensions

USD/JPY struggles to find acceptance above 160.00 and retreats from a one-month high in the Asian session on Thursday amid fears that authorities will step in again to prop up the Japanese Yen. Furthermore, a new Israel-Lebanon ceasefire caps the US Dollar and supports the currency pair. However, renewed US-Iran tensions keep the downside limited in the Greenback and the pair.

Gold defends 200-day SMA; upside seems capped on Iran uncertainty

Gold recovers from a one-week low near $4,425, or the 200-day SMA, in the Asian session on Thursday, as news of an Israel-Lebanon ceasefire acts as a headwind for the safe-haven US Dollar. However, renewed hostilities in the Gulf, along with stalled US-Iran peace talks, keep geopolitical risks in play and should support the USD, checking the Gold price rebound.

Kevin Warsh takes the Fed helm: What it means for the US Dollar

The Federal Reserve moves away from the highly predictable "forward guidance" model of the Jerome Powell era to a new “Kevin Warsh environment”, characterized by less communication, more policy surprises, and an increased focus on the Fed's complex balance sheet.

Recession on paper: What really moves the Canadian Loonie now?

Statistics Canada handed the headline writers a gift and the analysts a headache. Real GDP shrank 0.1% on an annualized basis in the first quarter, and with the fourth quarter of 2025 revised down to a 1.0% contraction, that is two negative quarters in a row, the textbook definition of a technical recession and Canada's first since the pandemic.
