XE Market Analysis: Europe – Jun 06, 2018

Comments are off

Both the dollar and yen have traded softer against most other currencies. EUR-USD has edged out a two-week high at 1.1734. EUR-JPY also posted a two-week peak, though the euro has traded more mixed (i.e. net neutral) versus other currencies, with euro crosses having flattened out for the most part out after rallying over the last week on the shifting Italian political situation. Concerns remain about how viable a government Italy’s unusual Five Star and League populist parties will make; about whether their anti-establishment, Eurosceptic colours will start to show through in policy.
