BBH's Elias Haddad said EUR/USD was consolidating after a rally driven by eurozone Q2 GDP growth of 0.4% QoQ, versus 0.0% in Q1. He argued the recovery and above-target inflation reinforce the case for an ECB hike on September 10, though swaps already price nearly 90% odds of a hike.
Existing ECB pricing limits further euro upside, so the currency's support for dollar-priced commodities is likely to stay modest. Expected tightening also raises borrowing costs that can weigh on European feed and livestock investment.
