The euro, the pound, and other risk assets have significantly weakened against the US dollar, and there were objective reasons for this.

News that Trump is dissatisfied with Iran's latest proposal to resolve the conflict led to a return of demand for the US dollar. Iran's last proposal involved postponing discussions on the Iranian nuclear program until the end of the war. Although Trump viewed it skeptically, he did not outright reject Tehran's proposal. The absence of data from the US also played a certain role in strengthening the dollar.

Today is expected to be relatively calm in terms of macroeconomic events. In the first half of the day, the market is unlikely to receive significant fundamental data from the eurozone that could provide a clear direction for the euro. Specifically, the expected unemployment data in Spain, while an important indicator of the health of the Spanish economy, is unlikely to have a significant impact on overall European trends. In the context of a general information vacuum, local indicators such as Spanish unemployment are likely to remain overshadowed by more global factors affecting the euro's exchange rate. The lack of major economic releases in the first half of the day may lead to some volatility caused by technical factors or speculative positions. Nevertheless, without new drivers, significant price movements are unlikely, and the EUR/USD pair is expected to exhibit restrained dynamics.

As for the pound, there are no significant macroeconomic data from the UK in the first half of the day that could set a new direction for the national currency. This creates preconditions for maintaining the trends that emerged the day before. The pressure observed on the British pound since yesterday may continue to influence its exchange rate. The absence of positive news or data capable of supporting growth exacerbates uncertainty and makes the currency vulnerable to negative factors related to the situation in the Middle East.
