EUR rebound amid hawkish statement from ECB council members<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The euro, one of the most traded currency in the foreign exchange market, rebounded after 3 consecutive days of downward trends. The rebound in the euro market was mainly attributed to the hawkish statement from the Europe Central Bank (ECB) council member Martins Kazaks. Kazaks argued that the euro inflation is still tilted on the upside and should raise the rate significantly to curb the sky-high inflation. Besides, the weakness of dollar market also supported a rebound in the euro market after the Fed chairman Jerome Powell’s less hawkish statement. Powell mentioned that the disinflation situation occurred in the US economy urged the dollar to drop. However, the rebound trends of the EUR were offset by the statement from Knot, the Dutch central bank governor. Knot mentioned that the inflation around the peak and the sharp decrease in energy prices could bring down the inflation faster than projection. This statement led investors to expect slowing in a rate hike for the upcoming ECB monetary policy decisions.\u00a0 Due to market uncertainty, investors are waiting for more cues from the upcoming EU economic forecast. As of writing, the EUR\/USD gained 0.20% to $1.0730.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodity market, the crude oil price depreciated by -0.10% to $78.40 per barrel as of writing following a 3-day rally amid Fed uncertainty and US inventory build. In addition, the gold price appreciated by 0.04% to $1891.50 per troy ounce as of writing amid the weakening of the US Dollar.<\/p>\n
