Danske Bank analysts said the ECB has introduced an easing risk premium on the euro that could grow if the eurozone outlook keeps weakening. They said US data has recently surprised to the downside but that the Fed is likely done hiking.
A trade deal and a Brexit resolution were seen as potential positives for the euro later in 2019.
A continued risk premium on the euro points to a softer EUR/USD, which tends to firm dollar prices for US grain and feed exports.
