- Dutch Central Bank President comments on the need for rate hikes to curb inflation.

The pair currently trades last at 1.10142.
The previous day high was 1.1048 while the previous day low was 1.0967. The daily 38.2% Fib levels comes at 1.1017, expected to provide resistance. Similarly, the daily 61.8% fib level is at 1.0998, expected to provide support.
The EUR/USD retreated from daily highs, hitting 1.1053 as the European session ended. The latest week, we have witnessed the US Federal Reserve (Fed) and the European Central Bank (ECB) increasing rates by 25 bps, though divergence would likely favor the latter. Hence, the EUR/USD is trading at 1.1017, with losses of 0.05%.
US equities continued to trade mixed. The EUR/USD pair is clinging to its earlier gains, despite data from the Eurozone (EU), namely Germany, showing that Industrial Production plunged in March to -3.4%, below the -1.3% contraction expected by the consensus. That, alongside the last week, Germany’s Industrial Orders plummeting 10.7% MoM, has raised recessionary fears amongst the EU.
In the meantime, some ECB officials embarked on hawkish remarks, with Dutch Central Bank President Klaas Knot saying that rate hikes are starting to have an effect, but more are needed to curb inflation. Of late, the ECB’s Chief Economist, Philip Lane, commented that inflation will come down, but momentum is still high.
On the US front, the debt ceiling narrative has taken center stage. According to Janet Yellen, the US Treasury Secretary, there are no favorable alternatives to resolve the debt limit issue in Washington without assistance from the US Congress. In the meantime, US President Joe Biden is expected to meet lawmakers on May 9 to advance in negotiations regarding raising the ceiling.
The US economic docket revealed that Wholesale Inventories were unchanged in March, below estimates of 0.1% MoM, the US Department of Commerce said. Annually based, inventories jumped 9.1% in March, despite the first quarter decline, as more robust US consumer spending contributed to the inventory rundown.
The daily chart’s EUR/USD price action suggests buyers remain in the driver’s seat. Of note is that while the EUR/USD pair is reaching higher highs, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator is not, as it has recorded a successive series of lower peaks. Therefore, a negative divergence between price action and the oscillator is emerging, which could pave the way for further losses. However, the EUR/USD must fall below 1.1000 first, so it can challenge the May 2 daily low of 1.0942. before dropping toward the 1.0900 figure. A breach of the latter will expose the 50-day EMA At 1.0883. Conversely, if EUR/USD buyers reclaim 1.1100, that would keep the EUR/USD uptrend intact.
