By Sagar Dua EUR/USD. The euro is strengthening in the EUR/USD pair during the Asian session, once again testing the 1.1645 level, while overall market activity remains elevated as investors prepare for next week’s Federal Reserve meeting. Forecasts suggest that the regulator will cut the interest rate by 25 basis points to 3.75% and may also signal a willingness to further ease monetary policy if macroeconomic data remains weak. This was reiterated yesterday by Fed Chair Jerome Powell during his speech at the George P. Shultz Memorial Lecture at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution. Powell noted that the Federal Reserve is currently prepared to loosen policy parameters, but final decisions will depend on incoming economic data and persistent inflation risks. The November labor market report will not be released this week due to the record-long government shutdown that lasted until mid-November. The data will appear only after the Fed meeting and will influence expectations for subsequent decisions.
