The post EUR/USD Price Forecast: Bears retain control within descending channel appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
EUR/USD holds firm on Wednesday after reversing earlier losses triggered by renewed tensions between the United States (US) and Iran, while traders digest the June Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting minutes.

The US has begun a fresh series of strikes on Iran, hitting more than 80 targets in and around the Strait of Hormuz only days after the latest patch on the Versailles accord. President Trump now calls the agreement over, even while leaving the door open to talks. Brent trades 6.3% higher and WTI 6.4% higher in response, and the story is no longer any single strike; it is the recursion, a strike-retaliate-re-sign loop that now resets in days rather than months. The loop runs faster each round Tehran hit three tankers transiting the strait between Monday and Tuesday; Washington answered by revoking the waiver behind Iranian Oil sales, then followed with a US Central Command (CENTCOM) package officials describe as four to five times larger than the round ten days ago: Air defences, coastal radar, anti-ship missile sites and more than 60 Revolutionary Guard small boats. Israel’s Kan reports Washington notified

The latest Fed minutes have highlighted the risk that AI demand could have on inflation as the Fed continues to hold rates steady. The minutes also signaled that a hike is still on the cards if inflation remains elevated and fails to fall to the 2% target. Fed Minutes Flag Inflation Risk Driven By AI Demand The Federal Reserve minutes from the June FOMC meeting highlighted multiple scenarios regarding the outlook for monetary policy. Most participants pointed to scenarios in which the labor market remains stable while inflation remains elevated due to strong AI-related demand, the Middle East conflict, or the effects of tariffs. In such scenarios, almost all of the participants indicated that some policy firming would be necessary to return to their 2% target. Furthermore, the Fed minutes showed that most participants commented on scenarios in which inflationary
