Editors’ Picks
EUR/USD remains in a consolidative range below 1.1400
EUR/USD navigates the latter part of Wednesday’s session with marked gains, although another test of the 1.1400 level remained elusive. The strong bounce in spot came on the back of a marked move lower in the US Dollar, which remained apathetic following the neutral stance from Chair Powell.
GBP/USD alternates gains with losses in the low-1.3200s
Even as the dollar retreats, GBP/USD continues to linger in the 1.3220–1.3230 range, forfeiting much of its intraday rally from multi‑month highs near 1.3300. Softer UK inflation data on Wednesday seem to have capped Cable’s upside.
USD/JPY struggles to hold 142.00 as US-China trade war batters US Dollar
USD/JPY sees more downside below 142.00 due to significant weakness in the US Dollar. US President Trump aims to reduce dependency on China for vital minerals. Investors await Fed Powell’s speech and Japan’s National CPI data for March.

Bitcoin stabilizes around $83,000 as China opens trade talks with President Trump’s administration

Future-proofing portfolios: A playbook for tariff and recession risks
It does seem like we will be talking tariffs for a while. And if tariffs stay — in some shape or form — even after negotiations, we’ll likely be talking about recession too. Higher input costs, persistent inflation, and tighter monetary policy are already weighing on global growth.
