1. Forex Market Insight  

EUR/USD 

The euro fell to its lowest level against the dollar since July 2020 as markets considered the risk of a resurgence of the outbreak triggering a further lockdown in Europe.

The euro fell by 0.47% against the dollar to 1.1237, with profit-taking ahead of the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday easing losses. Fears of new restrictions in Europe intensified as Austria entered another full lockdown and Germany considered following suit, dragging the euro lower. This is somewhat of a combo blow to the euro.

The surge in new cases across the eurozone, which has strengthened the outlook for an absolutely dovish ECB policy, in sharp contrast to the Fed, is under increasing pressure to accelerate the pace of policy normalization.
