Very few macroeconomic reports are scheduled for Wednesday. Therefore, any sharp reversal or strengthening of movement may only occur at the start of the U.S. trading session, when the May inflation report for the U.S. is released. Although inflation currently does not influence the Federal Reserve's monetary policy, this report remains fairly important for the market. The Fed is awaiting final decisions on U.S. import tariffs and clarity on trade relations with roughly half the world. Until there is more certainty in this area, the Fed is not planning to cut its key rate.
There are no notable fundamental events on Wednesday. The next Fed meeting is scheduled for next week, so Fed officials are in a blackout period and cannot comment on monetary policy. In the Eurozone, European Central Bank Chief Economist Philip Lane is scheduled to speak, but since the central bank's last meeting was held very recently, no new information is expected from him.
We believe that the trade war remains the key issue for the market, and there are currently no signs of its resolution. The U.S. dollar may continue to decline if trade agreements with most countries are not signed before the end of the preferential tariff period, which ends in about a month. The dollar could fall even without new tariffs from Trump, as the market's sentiment toward the U.S. president and his policies remains extremely negative. Donald Trump is known for making unpredictable decisions, not only in international trade.
On the third trading day of the week, both currency pairs will likely move based on technical factors for most of the day. The British pound may continue heading toward the 1.3443 level, while the euro is expected to remain range-bound. Only the U.S. inflation report or news from Trump could trigger a sharp and unexpected market move today.

Important speeches and reports, which are consistently featured in the news calendar, can significantly influence the movement of a currency pair. Therefore, during their release, it is advisable to trade with caution or consider exiting the market to avoid potential sharp price reversals against the prior trend.
