Weekly market recap, week ahed, and schedule
The euro appreciated vis-a-vis the U.S. dollar last week as the single currency tested offers around the $1.4320 level and was supported around the $1.4145 level. The pair gained about 95 pips last week. Conditions were volatile with traders worried about a Turkish strike in northern Iraq against the Kurds. U.S. housing data continued to crumble. The common currency’s new lifetime higher followed continued concerns over U.S. economic growth and ongoing ECB hawkishness. G7 officials convened in Washington on Friday. Outgoing IMF boss Rato said the “overvalued” dollar is subject to “more depreciation.” Bernanke said the Fed voted to “do more sooner” in easing last month and said housing will remain a “significant drag” on the economy while reiterating the Fed cannot overreact to one-off economic numbers.

Fundamental Outlook
The euro came off vis-a-vis the U.S. dollar today as the single currency tested bids around the US$ 1.4245 level and was capped around the $ 1.4320 level. Today’s intraday high represents a new lifetime high for the common currency. Traders drove the pair higher on expectations that today’s G7 communique will not make explicit reference to the euro’s relative strength. Countries like France and Italy are known to be critical of the euro’s recent strength while Germany and the U.S. appear more sanguine. The G7’s statement may instead refer to disorderly exchange rates and/ or Asian currency fundamentals. ECB’s Weber said high oil prices are an “upside risk” for inflation and a “downside risk” for economic growth while ECB’s Parama said the ECB cannot permit expectations of mid-term price rises.
