Scenario 2 highlights the risk from strong US data, which could boost the dollar. Invalidation point is a daily close above 1.3700.

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.
