  • EUR/USD edges higher on Monday as the US Dollar (USD) remains under pressure ahead of the Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell’s speech, which is scheduled at 17:00 GMT. Investors expect Powell to provide fresh cues about the likely interest rate cut size by the Fed in the November monetary policy meeting.
  • According to the CME FedWatch tool, the probability of the Fed reducing interest rates by 50 basis points (bps) in the November meeting to the range of 4.25%-4.50% is 41.6% at the time of writing. The likelihood has decreased from nearly 53.0% on Friday after the release of the United States (US) Personal Consumption Expenditures Price Index (PCE) report for August.
  • The PCE price index report showed on Friday that the annual inflation decelerated at a faster pace to 2.2% from the estimates of 2.3% and July’s reading of 2.5%. This was the lowest reading since February 2021. However, its impact appeared to be offset by the annual core PCE inflation – which excludes volatile food and energy prices – that accelerated to 2.7% from the former release of 2.6%, as expected, diminishing the odds of a double-dose rate cut in the next meeting.
  • Lately, Fed policymakers have become more focused on preventing job losses and an economic slowdown, with growing confidence that inflation will return to the bank’s target of 2%. To get fresh insights about the current status of the labor market health, investors will focus on a string of economic data such as JOLTS Job Openings for August, and the ADP Employment Change and Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data for September, which will be published this week.
