EUR/USD weakens to near 1.0400 amid quiet session
The EUR/USD pair trades with mild losses around 1.0400 during the early Asian session on Tuesday. The expectation that the US Federal Reserve will deliver fewer rate cuts in 2025 provides some support for the Greenback. Trading volumes are likely to be low ahead of the holiday trading week.
GBP/USD set to swoon on holiday-shortened week
GBP/USD waffled near the 1.2550 level on Monday, kicking off the holiday trading week with a third of a percent decline as market sentiment coils. Market volumes are set to drain out of global exchanges as investors broadly hang up their hats for the Christmas holiday, and global markets will be shuttered on Wednesday.
USD/JPY eases toward 157.00 after Japanese verbal intervention
USD/JPY has come under renewed selling pressure, easing toward 157.00 after Japanese Finance Minister Kato's verbal intervention. The pair erased early gains, induced by the October BoJ meeting Minutes. However, the downside could be limited as the US Dollar hold the previous rebound.
Gold remains stuck between two key barriers amid thin trading
Gold price is attempting another run higher while defending the $2,600 threshold early Tuesday. In doing so, Gold price replicates the recovery moves seen in Monday’s trading, which eventually fizzled out on a broad US Dollar comeback in tandem with US Treasury bond yields.
Crude Oil goes nowhere with trading volumes already at lower levels
Oil prices are slipping lower by less than 0.50%, reversing after a positive Asian session earlier. Markets are roughly range trading in search of levels while final US data makes its way. The US Dollar Index has a fresh two-year high in reach after upbeat Durable Goods revisions.
