Key Quotes
“Risks on EUR/USD building in favour of a topside break following Chair Yellen’s decidedly dovish speech. Would prefer to sit out any gains beyond 1.15 though”.
“The well-worn theme of EZ-US growth and policy divergence should reassert itself in due course. A steadily firming trend to the US should assuage Yellen eventually and help stabilize the USD. Similar dynamics played out last year”.
