📈 US Jobless Claims: Why They Matter for EURUSD 🇺🇸💼
While Trump’s tariff policies ⚔️ remain in focus, it’s important not to overlook today’s economic calendar 🗓️, with Initial Jobless Claims taking the spotlight.
🧐 What are Jobless Claims?
Initial Jobless Claims 📑 measure the number of people filing for state unemployment insurance for the first time. Released weekly by the US Department of Labor 🏛️, it’s a key indicator of the health of the US labor market 💪.
Why does it matter?
A strong labor market typically supports the US dollar 💵, as it reduces the likelihood of immediate Fed rate cuts 🕰️, while higher claims suggest a weakening economy, which could pressure the dollar lower.
📊 Latest Figures:
🔹 Previous: 233K
🔹 Forecast: 235K
Last week, claims fell from 237K to 233K, highlighting continued labor market resilience. If today’s data beats expectations (lower claims), the USD may strengthen 🛡️, potentially pushing EURUSD below 1.1700. Conversely, higher claims could weaken the USD ⚠️, lifting EURUSD above 1.1800.
💡 Trade Idea:
BUY EURUSD at 1.17300
❌ Stop Loss: 1.17600
✅ Take Profit: 1.16500
While the US labor market remains strong, technical factors and broader fundamentals can confirm a strong EURUSD reversal, keeping bearish opportunities in play.
🚀 Stay tuned for live reactions after the data drops!
