EUR/USD is back under pressure instigated by the PBoC making further moves to spur on the economy which propelled stocks into 5th gear resulting in the euro playing out its part in a funding currency. On the same week, Draghi explained that the ECB is in amber in respect of being ready to act accordingly while China and EM’s are weighing heavy on the EZ’s ability to recover, despite QE having the attended effects domestically.

While it is widely expected that the US economy has not done enough for the FOMC to call for a hike this month at this week’s FOMC meeting, there is still the possibility of a Fed hike before the year is out and the divergence between the two Central Banks exposes the downside in the euro.
