Where to Next, EUR/USD? Policy gap between ECB and Fed
The U.S. Federal Reserve has cut interest rates by 25 basis points to 4.00–4.25%, marking its first adjustment in nine months.

Caution Over Speed: How the Fed Framed Its First Cut
The Fed cut rates by 25 bps to 4.00–4.25% after a nine-month pause but kept a cautious tone. Powell called it “risk management,” signaling this isn’t the start of a fast easing cycle. The statement flagged growing employment-side risks, and the new dot plot points to a 3.6% median for 2025—implying two more cuts this year, though views are widely dispersed.

USD/JPY Technical: USD strength capped (again) below 148.95 range resistance, BoJ keeps rate hike hopes alive
The USD/JPY rebounded after holding 145.95 support but remains capped by 148.75/148.95 resistance. A dovish BoJ shift, with two officials voting for a rate hike, alongside narrowing US-Japan yield spreads, underpins yen strength. Unless USD/JPY breaks above 148.95, risks lean toward a retest of 146.30 and 145.95, with a daily close below the latter likely triggering a medium-term bearish breakout favoring JPY.

The EUR/USD hit a 4-year high of 1.1919 after the Fed’s 25 bps rate cut, but reversed to close -0.5% lower as Powell struck a less dovish tone, calling the move a “risk management” cut. The pair extended its decline to 1.1780 in Asia, down 1.2% from the post-FOMC high.
