The EUR/USD pair gains traction for the fifth consecutive day during the early European session on Wednesday. The decline of the US Dollar (USD) lends some support to the major pair. As of writing, EUR/USD is trading near 1.1001, gaining 0.12% on the day. (FXStreet)

The Japanese Yen (JPY) surrenders a major part of its intraday gains to a two-and-half-month high against the US Dollar (USD) in reaction to Bank of Japan (BoJ) board member Seiji Adachi's less hawkish remarks. Downplaying speculation that the BoJ is considering ending negative interest rates, Adachi said that the economy is yet to reach a stage where the central bank could debate an exit from ultra-easy monetary policy. This, along with a generally positive risk tone, is seen undermining the safe-haven JPY. (FXStreet)

The GBP/USD pair gains momentum above 1.2700 during the early European session on Wednesday. The uptick of the pair is supported by the weaker US Dollar (USD) and lower US Treasury bond yields. The pair currently trades near 1.2715, up 0.19% on the day. (FXStreet)

The USD/CAD pair reached a nine-week low at 1.3541 during the Asian session on Wednesday, currently trading below 1.3550. The decline in the USD/CAD pair is attributed to the accommodative remarks from US Federal Reserve (Fed) Governor Christopher Waller. Waller's suggestion that the Federal Reserve may not insist on maintaining high interest rates if inflation consistently declines has likely contributed to the downward pressure on the Loonie pair.

NZD/USD retraces its intraday gains as the US Dollar rebounds during the early European session on Wednesday.

USD/MXN halts its three-day winning streak due to the softer US Dollar (USD), which could be attributed to the mixed remarks from the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) members. Moreover, the mixed data from the United States (US) failed to heal the Greenback. The USD/MXN pair trades around 17.1400 during the European session on Wednesday. (FXStreet)

Gold prices have been strengthening largely on the back of the bearish narrative associated with the US dollar in 2024. Markets have been swiftly ticking higher but may be slightly impatient. Although the implied Fed funds futures (see table below) suggests roughly 85bps of cumulative interest rate cuts by December 2024, the Fed along with other central banks have been rather cautious in their language and highly data dependent which could easily sway forecasts should economic data oppose the current trend.
