The Euro is moving higher against the U.S. Dollar on Wednesday on expectations the Federal Reserve will maintain its downbeat stance on the U.S. economy as it grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic, and keep U.S. interest rates near zero for some time.
The Fed, which began a two-day meeting on Tuesday, is expected to affirm its current zero-interest-rate policy over the next three years, a view that could further weigh on the dollar.
The early price action suggests analysts do not expect a rate hike view from the Fed on Wednesday, but if it does happen, that could be a positive for the dollar.
Some traders will be centering their attention on whether the Fed sees a rate hike in 2023. The Euro could strengthen against the U.S. Dollar if the Fed projects no rate hikes. If they put a rate hike in there, pressure could be felt by equities and commodities, and the U.S. Dollar would likely rally.
