Eurozone PMIs continued to paint a grim picture for the region’s manufacturing outlook. That is not hugely relevant for the FX market, anyway. The soft economic outlook in the Eurozone has been priced in for a while, and with markets relatively confident about a June European Central Bank cut, it’s mostly Dollar rate expectations that are set to keep moving EUR/USD.
It remains unlikely that the pair can enjoy a sustained recovery without a decline in USD rates, but Thursday’s positive Dollar reaction to US data appeared overdone considering the recent narrative by the Fed, and I don’t feel EUR/USD should fall much further before bottoming out.

EUR/USD gains through 1.0835/1.0840 should add to positive momentum in the near term and help lift spot to the mid/upper 1.0800s.
Support is 1.0800 and firmer 1.0775
