Swaps anticipate further easing over the coming year to take the policy rate back to 2%. Eurozone\/US short-term spreads have nudged a little wider since the FOMC Wednesday, leaving the 2Y spread at \u2013207bps today and weighing on the EUR.” <\/span><\/p>\n “Spot is down for a fourth day in a row and trading below the 40-day MA (1.0393) which had provided some support for the EUR earlier in the week. More corrective losses for the EUR seem likely after spot\u2019s top\/reversal at 1.0535 at the start of the week.
