| June 27, 2008 | | Euro up in forex trading | The EUR/USD currency pair is gaining in FX trading today as weak economic data continues to plague the US dollar. Continued concerns about the credit market crisis are affecting the economy, and the recent "good news" about consumer confidence and income from the US is due mostly to the one-off economic stimulus payment to citizens from the US government.
The euro is also getting an overall boost on expected interest rate increase. The differential should serve to help the euro in forex trading, even though a slight correction to EUR/USD is in order. | Topic Tags: credit market crisis, currency market, currency pair, economic stimulus payment, EUR/USD FX trading, euro forex trading, forex trading, FX trading | |
