Welcome to Extreme Investor Network, where we provide you with unique insights and analysis on the latest trends and developments in the stock market. Today, we take a closer look at the GBP/USD pair and the ongoing pressure on the Euro due to weak German sentiment data.
The GBP/USD pair is currently trading at $1.27321, with a slight decline of 0.12% on the 4-hour chart. Positioned below the pivot point at $1.27542, the pair is leaning towards a bearish sentiment, with immediate support levels at $1.27210. Further downside movement could find additional support at $1.26775 and $1.26446. On the upside, breaking above $1.27542 could pave the way for bullish momentum, targeting resistance levels at $1.27935 and $1.28311. However, the presence of the 50-day EMA at $1.28064 and the 200-day EMA at $1.28937 indicate overhead resistance, reinforcing the current bearish outlook.
Meanwhile, the Euro is facing pressure as German economic sentiment indicators disappoint. The German ZEW Economic Sentiment index fell to 7.4, below the expected 13.2, reflecting a decline in investor confidence. The broader Eurozone ZEW sentiment also decreased to 12.5, missing forecasts of 20.5. While German CPI remained steady at 0.4% month-over-month, the weakening sentiment highlights the ongoing economic challenges in the Eurozone. Investors are now looking towards the results of the German 10-year bond auction for further guidance.
