The EUR/USD pair is trading neutrally around 1.0510 as market participants adopt a cautious stance ahead of the Federal Reserve's upcoming decision on interest rates. With the December meeting set to begin tonight and conclude tomorrow, all eyes are on the potential rate adjustment. The prevailing expectation is a 25 basis point cut, with a 94% probability factored by market consensus. Additionally, there's a 37% chance that this might be the only cut or that rates might not change at all in 2025, contributing to the current market apprehension.

As inflation concerns loom for 2025, influenced by uncertain policy decisions and economic stimulation measures, the Fed is expected to adopt a more cautious tone in its communications. This approach is aimed at providing the flexibility to respond effectively to economic indicators as they evolve.

Today, the market is also focused on the release of November's Retail Sales and industrial production data from the US. These indicators are crucial for assessing the current state of the US economy and could influence the Fed's policy direction.
