However the Euro bore even more pressure as the EUR/USD pair hammers at its 1.2150 support. The GBP/USD pair is in consolidation but looks much stronger than the EUR/USD. The EUR/JPY made a convincing rally attempt today, but it is within a side-ways consolidation with bearish bias. Finally Gold continues to rally towards the record high near 1250 as anticipated.

The EUR/USD hit a 14-month low, and with oil and gold falling commodity currencies weakened as well. US equities managed to cut early losses and by noon NY-time we saw a small counter-rally to the overnight risk aversion.

That pressured the Euro, though risk sensitive currencies like the Aussie and Loonie managed to gain on today’s session. The FOMC upped its outlook for the economy but kept its pledge to hold rates at their low levels for an extended period helping to boost risk appetite in US equities and oil. Finally, the Pound was pressured by comments on its economy from a former MPC member.

That caused a sharp sell-off of Euro’s and other higher yielders and buying of safe-haven currencies like the US Dollar and Yen.
