> LBBW strategists forecast the euro will strengthen as yield differentials narrow, since the ECB has paused rate cuts while the Federal Reserve is expected to cut twice more by the end of 2026. They note political uncertainty in France may weigh on the euro, while confidence in the dollar is also being questioned.
