Expectations of ECB tightening are a key driver of the euro against the dollar, which in turn influences dollar-denominated ag prices. The pair remains range-bound, so the effect on feed markets is limited.
After 533 past bearish macro events, Euro (USD per EUR) moved a median -0.3% over 5 sessions (33% higher; middle half -1.2% to +0.2%), and -0.5% over 20.
