The currency major begins the main week of December with a minor decline by 1.0520.
All the key events of the week are focused on the days to come. On Tuesday, the US will issue the November CPI. Inflation is supposed to have dropped to 7.3% y/y from 7.7% previously. If so, this will create increased volatility before the Federal Reserve System announces the results of the meeting on Wednesday.
If inflation is indeed retracting, the Fed my go by the market expectations are raise the interest rate by 50 base points at once. However, if inflation statistics give some signals to worry about, the Fed will act as it is used to, increasing the crediting price by 75 base points like before.
Anticipating these events, the market will be in a standby mode.
