The euro is heading for a fifth consecutive week of decline, but signs of weakening selling pressure are emerging.
智通财经2026/10/09 04:06(1) On Friday, the euro is heading for its fifth consecutive weekly decline. However, as the French bond market stabilizes and falling US Treasury yields temper the dollar’s rally, the sustained selling pressure on the euro is beginning to show signs of easing. (2) On Monday, the euro briefly fell to 1.1161 against the US dollar, hitting a 17-month low before rebounding; this week it remains down 0.1%, with a cumulative loss of over 3% over the past five weeks. (3) Matt Simpson, senior analyst at StoneX in Brisbane, said: "I think the current market move now looks a little overdone. The euro typically only experiences two or three major swings a year, and this is one of those... but the bearish momentum is waning, so trading at current lows should be approached with particular caution." (4) Vishnu Varathan, Head of Asia Pacific Macroeconomics and Strategy at Mizuho Securities, stated that the dollar is currently “in a precarious position of dominance,” with its strength partly owing to the weak performance of both the euro and the yen.
