• EUR/USD picks up bids to print mild gains while snapping three-day downtrend.
• US debt ceiling expiration talks, relief from First Republic Bank woes join downbeat yields to weigh on US Dollar.
• Euro cheers hawkish ECB talks despite mixed growth numbers as Eurozone HICP, CPI looms.
• US Factory Orders, risk catalysts are also important for clear directions ahead of Fed, ECB monetary policy decisions.

The pair currently trades last at 1.09887.

The previous day high was 1.1036 while the previous day low was 1.0964. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 1.0992, expected to provide resistance. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 1.1008, expected to provide resistance.

EUR/USD cheers US Dollar’s retreat to snap a three-day downtrend near 1.0990 during early Tuesday morning in Europe. In doing so, the Euro pair also benefits from the market’s anxiety ahead of the key Eurozone inflation data amid the return of the bloc’s traders after a long weekend.

It’s worth mentioning that the talks surrounding the US default and hawkish Fed bets, as well as about China growth and the Sino-American tension, seem to challenge the market’s previously US Dollar positive bias. The reason could be linked to the European Central Bank (ECB) Officials’ readiness to keep the rate hike, as well as rejection of the recession woes even if the latest Gross Domestic Product (GDP) for Eurozone and Germany appear softer.

That said, US Treasury Department renewed fears of US default by pulling forward the date of running out of funds to match obligations if the current debt ceiling isn’t altered, to June 01 from previously signaled July. Following that, Reuters came out with the news suggesting the US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s push for an expedited process to consider a clean two-year suspension of the federal debt ceiling. Further, chatters of US President Joe Biden’s call to four top US diplomats and arranging a meeting on May 09 also made rounds.

Elsewhere, a relief from the US First Republic Bank issue allowed traders to take a breather as the US regulators seized assets of the First Republic Bank and sold them to a new buyer, namely JP Morgan.

On the other hand, the latest statements from China Beige Book (CBB) suggesting that new data offer the first evidence of a truly robust 2023 recovery in the dragon nation, per analysts from CBB, seem to favor the EUR/USD optimists. However, Axios came out with headlines suggesting the US allies’ preparations for the US-China war over Taiwan, which in turn keeps the Euro bears hopeful, via the US Dollar’s haven demand.

It’s worth observing that Friday’s upbeat US inflation clues via Core PCE Price Index join Monday’s mostly firmer US PMI data to underpin hawkish bias about the Federal Reserve (Fed) and weigh on the sentiment. On the same line are the US inflation expectations, as per the 10-year and 5-year breakeven inflation rates from the St. Louis Federal Reserve (FRED) data.

Against this backdrop, S&P 500 Futures print mild losses after retreating from a three-month high, down 0.10% intraday near 4,182 by the press time. On the same line, the US 10-year and two-year Treasury bond yields retreat from a one-week high to 3.55% and 4.13% at the latest.

Looking ahead, German Retail Sales for March and the ECB Bank Landing Survey may entertain EUR/USD pair traders ahead of the first readings of the Eurozone’s key inflation gauge for April, namely Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP). Given the likely unchanged figures, any negative surprise won’t hesitate to recall the EUR/USD bears amid hawkish Fed bets. In that case, today’s US Factory Orders for March, expected to rise by 0.8% MoM versus -0.7% prior, can offer clear directions ahead of Wednesday’s FOMC and Thursday’s ECB monetary policy meetings.

Despite the late rebound, EUR/USD keeps the previous day’s downside break of an upward-sloping support line from late March, now immediate resistance near 1.1010, which in turn joins downbeat oscillators to favor Euro pair sellers.
