Forex Marketz Daily Forex News – Fully Markets Update
Looking at the benchmark EUR/GBP currency exchange rate on the above daily MT 4 chart, the euro currency has fallen below 0.8610. This Forex market looks a bit directionless while below the short-term ten (10) day simple moving average (SMA) as price action is being guided lower by a multi-day old falling trend line.
As far as economic data is concerned, France is publishing monthly industrial production numbers and the United Kingdom has nothing on their economic calendar. The United States is publishing both core and headline monthly consumer price index (CPI) data.
The sentiment linked euro currency is paying close attention to the U.S. House of Representatives voted, overnight Tuesday, to advance President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus pandemic rescue package.
Today at 10 am GMT they will consider the bill where it is expected to pass along party lines. No Republicans are supporting this bill as the United States remains deeply fractured. Once the bill is passed, as early as today, President Joe Biden can sign it into law.
If passed, this bill is one of the largest U.S. fiscal aid packages since the 1960s. It will also give President Biden and the Democrats, who control Congress, a large legislative victory. President Biden has been in office less than two months.
