EUR/USD climbed to $1.1395, approaching a one-month high as the dollar softened amid mounting U.S. fiscal concerns and uncertainty over Trump’s tax-and-spending bill. Risk sentiment improved after Trump delayed a planned 50% tariff on EU goods, easing fears of a transatlantic trade clash. The euro also gained from ECB President Lagarde’s remarks that it could strengthen as a global currency if EU institutions were reinforced.
Resistance is at 1.1425, with additional levels at 1.1460 and 1.1580. Support begins at 1.1260, followed by 1.1100 and 1.1050.

The Japanese yen strengthened toward 142 per dollar on Tuesday, its highest in four weeks, driven by safe-haven inflows and weak dollar sentiment tied to Trump’s fiscal plan. Worries over a widening U.S. deficit weighed on the greenback, while speculation of a 25% iPhone tariff added to trade conflicts. Domestically, expectations for more BoJ tightening rose after core inflation surprised at 3.5%, a two-year high.
Resistance stands at 148.60, with further levels at 149.80 and 151.20. Support is found at 139.70, then 137.00 and 135.00.

Gold remained steady at nearly $3,340 per ounce on Tuesday, with demand easing slightly due to renewed trade optimism after Trump pushed back EU tariffs to July 9. The EU pledged to speed up negotiations, lifting risk sentiment. However, worries over U.S. fiscal health, global trade dynamics, and geopolitical tensions kept markets cautious. Investors now await the FOMC minutes and PCE inflation data for policy cues.
Support is seen at $3,270, while resistance is located at $3,370. Further levels include $3,150 and $3,025 below, and $3,440 and $3,500 above.

GBP/USD advanced above $1.357, hitting its highest level since February 2022, as Trump’s delay of the 50% EU tariff boosted global sentiment. The pound also gained from promising April data, with retail sales rising 1.2%, marking the fourth monthly gain. Inflation stayed high at 3.5%, adding uncertainty over the BoE’s next move. Markets now price in a 50% chance of a rate cut by August, with another possible by year-end.
Support lies at 1.3425, with resistance at 1.3600. Other key levels are 1.3850 and 1.3750 above, and 1.3165 and 1.2890 below.

R3: 1.3850 | S3: 1.2890 |
Silver eased to $33.31 per ounce, pulling back slightly as investors booked profits after recent gains. The retreat came even as the dollar remained weak and geopolitical tensions, including the conflict in Ukraine, persisted. While momentum slowed, physical demand, especially from Asia, continues to provide a firm base for silver.
Support is at $32.30, with resistance at $33.80. Additional levels include $34.20 and $34.90 above, and $31.40 and $30.20 below.
R1: 33.80 | S1: 32.30 |

Markets moved cautiously on Tuesday as renewed optimism around US-China trade talks and stable macro data shaped sentiment across major assets.
Detail Markets Keep Steady Ahead of U.S.–China Trade Talks (06.09.2025)Markets kicked off the week on cautious footing as investors await key U.S.–China trade negotiations in London. The dollar held firm after a solid U.S. jobs report, while the euro and yen reacted to central bank commentary and revised data.
DetailThe US dollar index rose over 0.4% to above 99.1 on Friday after May’s jobs report showed 139,000 new jobs, beating expectations of 126,000. Wages also grew faster than expected, though a downward revision to April’s figures limited optimism. Despite Friday's gains, the dollar is still headed for a small weekly loss due to broader economic slowdown concerns and Fed uncertainty. The euro dropped below $1.14 after the ECB’s 25bps rate cut and downgraded inflation forecasts. President Lagarde suggested the easing cycle may be near its end, while ECB’s Stournaras said the eurozone likely achieved a “soft landing.” The British pound climbed to $1.355, nearing a three-year high, backed by strong UK data and a new £15 billion defense plan under AUKUS. The yen weakened toward 144 as traders processed weak Japanese spending figures and awaited the US jobs report. BOJ Governor Ueda reiterated a possible rate hike if economic forecasts are met.
