31.01.202505:01 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Forecast for EUR/USD on January 31, 2025

Relevance up to 21:00 UTC--5

At yesterday's meeting, the European Central Bank lowered its key interest rates by the expected 0.25%. In its accompanying statement, the central bank emphasized its commitment to a restrictive policy, which has led the markets to strengthen expectations for another rate cut in March and to anticipate a total of three cuts by the end of the year.

However, the euro did not decline significantly, dropping only 30 pips, primarily due to weak GDP data. In the fourth quarter, GDP showed zero growth compared to an expected increase of 0.1%, while the annual GDP remained at 0.9%, falling short of the anticipated 1.0% growth.

It is important to note that GDP has a unique characteristic compared to other indices—it often accumulates alongside subsequent weak data and can have a delayed effect that extends over a week. Next week, key inflation data, PMI reports, and a broad range of U.S. economic indicators, including unemployment figures, will be released for the Eurozone. However, the euro approaches these events from a notably weak position. A consolidation below the 1.0350 support level could open the door for a decline toward the 1.0135 target.
