Last week, European Central Bank (ECB) raised the interest rate by 0.75% as per expected but Canada’s Central Bank, which is just next to the United States surprisingly raised its interest rate by 0.5% only, against the consensus of 0.75%. What will FOMC do in this coming Interest Rate Decision on 2 Nov 2022?
There is no FOMC meeting on Oct but European Central Bank’s(ECB) Interest Rate Decision is coming this week on 27 Oct 2022.
After ECB raised 0.75% of the interest rate last two weeks, this week is US Federal Reserve‘s turn to raise interest.
With more hawkish comments from US Federal Reserve members, the EURUSD dropped below parity again this week. Next week on 8th September 2022, it is again ECB (European Central Bank) Interest Rate announcement and we should expect it will be a volatile week for EURUSD.
EURUSD started to drop again last week and it seems to be in the process to retest the 52-week low of 0.9952. Jackson Hole Meeting, the annual global central banking conference is coming this in this Thursday 25 Aug till the weekend of next week.
