German inflation grew on an annualised basis, data released today showed, but the market still believes that the ECB will start cutting interest rates next week

Forex Update: As of 14:00, these are your best and worst performers based on the London trading schedule: 🇨🇭CHF: -0.03% 🇯🇵JPY: -0....Preliminary German inflation data for May shows annual inflation moving higher but monthly inflation moving lower. Annual inflation edged up to 2.4%, in line with market expectations, from 2.2%, while monthly inflation rose by just 0.1%, compared to expectations of 0.2% and a prior month’s reading of 0.5%.

Typically, contrarian trading strategies that go against the crowd sentiment tend to yield better results. With traders currently leaning towards a net-short bias, this could potentially signal further upside for the EUR/USD pair. However, the mixed positioning data, with a less net-short stance than yesterday but a more net-short stance compared to last week, suggests a mixed trading bias for the EUR/USD currency pair.
