Breaking News: UK headline CPI cools, services sector inflation remains sticky. GBP/USD steady
UK inflation fell to a 10-month low of 3.0% in January 2026, driven by easing food and transport costs. With core inflation dropping to 3.1% and monthly prices reversing their recent climb, pressure is mounting on the Bank of England to pivot. This report explores how the latest CPI data paves the way for a potential interest rate cut to 3.5% at the upcoming March meeting.

Breaking News: Canadian CPI eases from 3-month high, USD/CAD extends gains
Canada’s headline inflation eased to 2.3% in January 2026, landing just below market expectations. While a 16.7% plunge in gas prices drove transportation deflation, food and restaurant costs surged due to expiring tax breaks. With the trimmed-mean core rate hitting its lowest level since 2021, the Bank of Canada appears on track to hold interest rates steady as price pressures slowly stabilize.

Aussie Dollar fatigue? Technical signs hint at an AUD/USD pullback
Technical analysis suggests AUD/USD is facing fatigue after a 500-pip rally, pointing to a potential pullback with key support levels to watch. Fundamentally, central bank divergence (RBA hikes vs. potential Fed cuts) supports the long-term Aussie dollar gain. OANDA client sentiment is net-short, which may signal a short-term rise. Upcoming RBA/Fed minutes and data releases are expected to bring volatility.

US inflation slows, Fed may cut rates more than the market prices in
US inflation continued to ease in January, with both headline and core readings showing gradual moderation. Tariff effects remain limited and rent pressures have slowed. The Fed is likely to stay on hold in the near term, but markets expect rate cuts from mid year, pricing in close to two and a half reductions by year end.

EUR/USD bearish move below parity on hold for now
EUR/USD's Next Move: Hot inflation to 1.1785 or cooling jobs to 1.2000?
EUR/USD is tightly coiled ahead of the crucial U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) release, which was delayed this month. The pair's fate hangs on two factors: Inflation Realities and Labor Market Strength. A "hot" CPI print is expected to reinforce the Fed's hawkish pause, potentially driving EUR/USD down to the 1.1785 support. Conversely, further signs of a cooling U.S. labor market, like rising jobless claims, could weaken the Dollar and allow the Euro to retest the 1.2000 psychological barrier.

Chart alert: Gold rally faces risk of exhaustion below $5,170
Gold’s 15% rebound from $4,405 is losing steam as prices stall below key $5,170 resistance. The usual inverse correlation with the US dollar has weakened, while the Shanghai gold premium has flipped into discount, signalling softer physical demand. Bearish RSI divergence raises the risk of a pullback toward $4,795–$4,703 unless bulls reclaim momentum above $5,170.

Breaking News: UK GDP underwhelms with 0.1% growth in Q4, FTSE 100 slips & GBP/USD advances
Preliminary ONS data shows the UK economy expanded by a disappointing 0.1% in Q4 2025. This sluggish growth was driven by a 1.2% rebound in the production sector, which was largely offset by a 2.1% contraction in construction and, more critically, a third consecutive month of zero growth in the dominant services sector. Markets reacted with volatility, as the FTSE 100 pulled back while GBP/USD advanced.

USD/JPY Outlook: Momentum bearish, but can the US dollar find support on strong jobs data?
Technical outlook for USD/JPY: The pair faces downward pressure, trading below the 100-day MA near 152.800. Yen strength is driven by post-election fiscal clarity and aggressive short-covering. The US dollar's mixed performance and upcoming US CPI release are key catalysts. Technical analysis suggests bearish momentum remains in play (RSI below 50). Key support is 151.53, with immediate resistance at 153.91.
