EUR/USD – Spain, Italy next on Moody’s radar

FXstreet.com (California) – EUR/USD is still vulnerable to the downside as more Moody’s-inspired fears plague the Euro-zone.

“Rumours making the rounds that the major rating agencies are close to downgrade a ‘core’ eurozone country – which will trigger fears of more contagion effects and spikes in yields and borrowing costs. Focus on Spain and Italy yields and ratings, given current concerns,” comments the FXMarketAlerts Team.

Technically speaking, “The short term pattern continues to favor the downside but there is probably support in the mid 13700s – this area is defined by the 2010-2011 trendline, pivot low from March, and 52 week average,” explains Jamie Saettele, CMT, Sr. Technical Strategist at DailyFX. “Short term resistance extends to 14100.”
