EUR/USD: Risk of moving back to 1.06 on a 6-month view – Rabobank

Matías Salord FXStreet

The EUR/USD is about to its lowest weekly close since June, below 1.0900. Analysts at Rabobank see risks of the pair moving toward 1.06 on a six-month view.

Key quotes:

While the USD has recently found support from the ‘higher for longer’ rate theme, it has also found buyers on the back as safe-haven flows as the news from China becomes more worrying.

We maintain our 3-month EUR/USD forecast of 1.08 and see risk of EUR/USD moving back to 1.06 on a 6 month view before Fed rate cuts make way for a softer outlook for the greenback.

Adding to this, Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's remarks at the Jackson Hole Symposium on Friday might offer more cues about the interest rate path.

Canada hits US goods with tariffs; The rate market sees a problem

On September 8, Canada begins charging its own importers 15%, 25% and 50% on roughly 700 lines of American goods. The measure is billed as dollar for dollar, and on the arithmetic of covered trade it is. What it is not is a tax on the United States.
