Forex Signals Brief for Sep 11: US CPI to Close Out the Week

While we will be watching US CPI later today, once again sentiment is the real driving force for today’s session.

CPI Ahead

US Market Wrap

The up and down price action on global markets continued and it’s anyone’s guess how the week might end.

Much of the focus yesterday was actually in Europe as we heard from the ECB. While rates were left unchanged as most expected, the talk was surrounding the EUR/USD which has seen quite a bit of upside in recent times. Christine Lagarde suggested that the Euro is not the main focus at the moment and that helped it run even higher.

US equity markets ended the session lower, the USD was up and down, feeling some pressure from the likes of GOLD while the Euro ended around the 1.1850 mark.

The Data Agenda

While we will be watching US CPI later today, once again sentiment is the real driving force for today’s session.

As markets look to wrap up what has been a short week, all the attention will be on which way sentiment falls. The tech stocks have really been driving things recently, so again that is a key theme for today.

Otherwise, we will have data from the UK early with GDP and manufacturing bound to impact the GBP/USD.
