EUR/USD edges higher as German GDP shows 0.2% growth in 2025
EUR/USD traded 0.1% higher at 1.0745 following Germany's GDP data release, which showed a modest 0.2% expansion in 2025 after two consecutive years of contraction (-0.9% in 2023 and -0.5% in 2024). The marginal growth provides temporary relief from stagflation concerns that have weighed on the euro, though underlying economic conditions remain fragile. Market participants noted that persistent inflation pressures across the eurozone continue to complicate the European Central Bank's policy outlook. The tepid recovery in Europe's largest economy suggests limited upside potential for the euro in the near term. Technical levels show EUR/USD facing resistance at 1.0780, with support established at 1.0720. Traders remain cautious as economic fundamentals point to continued weakness in the German economy despite the positive headline figure, with focus shifting to upcoming eurozone inflation data for further directional cues.

USD/JPY rises as BOJ signals steady rates; XAG/USD plunges sharply
USD/JPY advanced 0.2% to 157.85 as Bank of Japan Governor Ueda reiterated conditions for sustained wage-price cycles while maintaining a dovish stance. Markets now expect the BOJ to hold rates through March before potentially hiking to 1% or higher by September. The yen weakened further as BOJ officials signaled gradual policy normalization despite inflation concerns. Meanwhile, XAG/USD crashed 3.5% to $29.75, extending losses amid risk-off sentiment and dollar strength. The Bank of Korea's Governor Rhee warned about won weakness potentially lifting inflation, adding to Asian currency pressures. Technical indicators show USD/JPY facing resistance at 158.00 with support at 157.50. The combination of diverging central bank policies and commodity weakness suggests continued yen vulnerability and dollar dominance in the near term.

GBP/USD gains as UK housing recovery boosts pound sentiment
GBP/USD has strengthened to 1.2680, gaining 0.25% as improving UK housing market conditions and strong foreign investment flows support sterling. The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) reported a significant turnaround in sales expectations, with surveyors turning notably more optimistic about future activity. House price expectations stabilized despite current weakness, driven by rate-cut expectations and increased fiscal clarity following the autumn budget. Additionally, McKinsey data shows the UK climbed to third place globally for foreign direct investment (FDI), with AI and clean energy sectors leading inflows. This combination of domestic recovery signs and international investment confidence has provided underlying support for the pound. Technical resistance lies at 1.2720, while support is found at 1.2640. Traders are monitoring upcoming UK inflation data and Bank of England communications for further directional cues.
