Barring another US-Iran escalation, the price action<br \/>\n        should remain mostly rangebound into the US CPI report due on Tuesday. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0 0 11px; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; line-height: normal; font-size: 15px\">The CPI should have a major influence on interest rate expectations given<br \/>\n        the Fed\u2019s focus on inflation. If the data surprises to the upside, we will<br \/>\n        likely see another rally in the US dollar on a hawkish repricing. Conversely,<br \/>\n        lower than expected figures should extend the recent correction on peak<br \/>\n        inflation narrative. <\/p>\n<p style='margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-family: \"Times New Roman\", serif; font-size: 16px'>EUR:<\/p>\n<p style='margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-family: \"Times New Roman\", serif; font-size: 16px'>On the EUR side, the June<br \/>\n        inflation data showed a welcome easing for the ECB which coupled with the quick<br \/>\n        drop in energy prices, greatly diminished the urgency for further tightening.<br \/>\n        This is also what policymakers have been communicating via their recent<br \/>\n        speeches which basically sealed a pause in July. <\/p>\n<p style='margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-family: \"Times New Roman\", serif; font-size: 16px'>The market is still pricing<br \/>\n        in a 35% chance of a hike in July, although it should stand much lower. Moreover,<br \/>\n        there\u2019s a total of 37 bps of tightening priced in by year-end which suggests<br \/>\n        the market is expecting at least another rate hike from the ECB in 2026. For<br \/>\n        now, the data supports a prolonged pause.<\/p>\n<p style='margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-family: \"Times New Roman\", serif; font-size: 16px'>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0 0 11px; line-height: 107%; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 15px\">EURUSD TECHNICAL<br \/>\n        ANALYSIS \u2013 DAILY TIMEFRAME<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p style='margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; font-family: \"Times New Roman\", serif; font-size: 16px'>On the daily chart, we can<br \/>\n        see that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/symbols\/EURUSD\/\" style=\"color: rgba(70, 120, 134, 1); text-decoration: underline\" rel=\"follow\">EURUSD<\/a>is still consolidating above<br \/>\n            the key 1.14 support.
