Consolidation After volatility: European Currencies Search For Direction
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_DzHYiEQy_o

European currencies are showing restrained movement, remaining in a range-bound phase following last week?s heightened volatility. Meetings of the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England, along with comments from policymakers, triggered sharp swings: EUR/USD and GBP/USD initially declined, followed by a rapid rise that pushed them beyond previous ranges. However, this move proved to be a false breakout, and the return of prices into prior corridors points to the formation of market equilibrium after the failed attempt to break higher.

The current fundamental backdrop remains neutral following a reassessment of expectations regarding future Federal Reserve policy. Geopolitical factors have temporarily faded from focus, while market participants have adopted a wait-and-see approach, assessing prospects in the absence of clear catalysts.

AUD/USD and AUD/CAD Hit New Highs Amid RBA Tightening
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_2W0Rh9YS_o

The Australian dollar continues to strengthen, pushing to fresh 2021?2022 highs, supported by a combination of the Reserve Bank of Australia?s tight monetary stance and a weaker US dollar. This week?s rate hike by the RBA has been a key driver, widening yield differentials and boosting demand for the Australian currency, which has reinforced the ongoing uptrend. Additional pressure on the US dollar came from weak labour data, including the ADP report, increasing expectations of a more accommodative Fed policy.

The current market structure suggests that both AUD/USD and AUD/CAD have broken out of recent consolidation ranges and are now advancing towards multi-year highs. Trading at these levels creates a decision zone where liquidity is being reallocated, with the market assessing whether prices can hold above extremes or fall back into prior ranges.

In the near term, the key event for markets will be the US Non-Farm Payrolls report, while other macro releases are likely to play a secondary role. The NFP reaction could significantly influence expectations for Fed policy and set the direction for the US dollar.

Silver: Structural Deficit Amid Declining Demand
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_silver

Fundamental Background
The structural deficit in the silver market has now persisted for a sixth consecutive year. According to forecasts by the Silver Institute, the gap between supply and demand in 2026 is expected to reach 67 million ounces, forcing the market to rely on accumulated reserves. However, the demand picture remains uneven.

Industrial consumption continues to decline, primarily due to the photovoltaic sector, where solar panel manufacturers are actively reducing the amount of silver used per cell in response to elevated prices. Against this backdrop, investment demand remains resilient: global ETP holdings have reached approximately 1.31 billion ounces, while silver lease rates in London have climbed to record highs amid a growing physical shortage.

Dollar Gains After CPI: USD/JPY and USD/CAD Test Resistance
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_nP1oEkTj_o

The US dollar strengthened following the release of stronger-than-expected inflation data, which reinforced expectations that the Federal Reserve will maintain a restrictive monetary policy stance. US consumer prices rose to their highest levels since May 2023, renewing concerns over persistent inflationary pressure. This pushed Treasury yields higher and supported demand for the dollar. Additional support came from renewed speculation among some market participants that the Fed could still consider further tightening.

Despite the stronger dollar, the continuation of the upward move remains uncertain. Following the sharp rally, both USD/JPY and USD/CAD tested important resistance levels, but the market has so far failed to secure a sustained break above them. This suggests that investors remain cautious and that the latest bullish impulse has yet to be fully confirmed.

EUR/USD and GBP/USD Return to Ranges Ahead of Key Data
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_r2iRdAM6_o

European currencies have moved into a corrective phase following recent gains, while market participants focus on upcoming macroeconomic data from the UK, the eurozone and the United States. After a strong upward move, both currencies returned to their previous trading ranges, signalling a shift towards consolidation ahead of important economic releases. Additional pressure on the euro and pound is coming from partial profit-taking after the earlier weakening of the US dollar.

Investors will assess data on UK GDP, industrial production and business activity across European economies. These figures may influence expectations regarding future actions by the Bank of England and the European Central Bank. At the same time, markets continue to monitor US statistics, including retail sales and jobless claims, which could affect expectations surrounding future Federal Reserve policy.

Alibaba: Weak Earnings and Record Trading Volume After Results
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_HJBLr1Xa_o

Fundamental Background
On 13 May, Alibaba Group released its financial results for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2026. Revenue reached RMB 243.38 billion ($35.28 billion), up 3% compared with the same period a year earlier. The company reported an operating loss of RMB 848 million ($123 million), compared with an operating profit of RMB 28.46 billion in the corresponding quarter last year. The decline was driven by heavy investment in AI infrastructure and subsidies for the Taobao Instant Commerce rapid-delivery service. Non-GAAP net profit fell by 100% to RMB 86 million ($12 million).

The only notably positive segment was cloud computing: revenue from external clients increased by 40%, while AI-related product revenue posted strong growth for the eleventh consecutive quarter, according to the company?s press release.

GBP/USD: Sterling Under Pressure Despite Strong GDP Data
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_WK1XBn4B_o

Fundamental Background
UK GDP grew by 0.6% in the first quarter of 2026, notably above the revised 0.2% reading recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025. The main contribution came from the services sector, which expanded by 0.8%. Nevertheless, strong macroeconomic data failed to support sterling: CPI inflation accelerated to 3.3% year-on-year in March, up from 3.0% in February, mainly due to higher motor fuel prices linked to the Middle East conflict.

At its meeting on 30 April, the Bank of England kept the base rate unchanged at 3.75% in an 8?1 vote, while several MPC members signalled the possibility of further tightening should inflationary pressure persist. According to the International Monetary Fund, UK GDP growth in 2026 is expected to reach only 0.8%, representing the largest downgrade among G7 economies.

- The ECB is turning more hawkish amid energy-driven inflation risks
- The BOJ remains an important factor to monitor for FX markets and carry trades

Policy divergence between major central banks could become a closely watched factor for FX markets in the second half of the year.

WTI: Falling Production and Deadlock in Negotiations
Daily Market Analysis By FXOpen in Fundamental_XLC7mG1i_o

Fundamental Background
As a result of the military conflict between the United States and Iran, the combined volume of halted oil production in Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the UAE, Qatar and Bahrain reached 10.5 million barrels per day in April, triggering record declines in global oil inventories. The U.S. Energy Information Administration forecasts a drop in global inventories of 8.5 million barrels per day in the second quarter of 2026 before supplies through the strait begin to recover.

An additional structural factor came from the UAE?s withdrawal from OPEC, which took effect on 1 May 2026 and reduced the cartel?s available spare production capacity. On the diplomatic front, negotiations continue without clear progress: according to available reports, Iran is prepared to accept a long-term nuclear freeze, but not the full dismantling of its nuclear programme, while both sides continue discussing conditions through intermediaries.
