EUR/USD posts fresh 6-month lows sub-1.0700

By FXStreet FXStreet (Córdoba) – EUR/USD came under renewed pressure early during the American session and posted fresh 6-month sub-1.0700.

The euro weakened across the board and dropped to fresh lows against the dollar and the pound with no clear catalyst. EUR/USD dropped 40 pips in a matter of minutes and slid below the 1.07 mark to post a low of 1.0697. However, the pair found support and it is currently trading around the psychological level, recording a 0.42% loss on the day.

EUR/USD remains under broad pressure amid divergent policy outlooks. While the Fed is expected to raise rates in December, the ECB seems poised to loosen its policy further.
