EUR/USD remains a sell on strength – SG
FXStreet (Barcelona) - Alvin Tan, FX Strategist at Societe Generale, explains that accelerating capital outflows will weigh on the euro, and suggests waiting for an opportunity to sell EUR/USD strength.
Key Quotes
“There are fundamental forces weighing on the euro as capital outflows accelerate given ECB QE and the euro’s transition into a global funding currency. In the year to January 2015, euro area residents sent almost half a trillion euros in net portfolio outflows abroad.”
“We still see EUR/USD at parity in a year’s time. As such, we choose not to speculate on short-term EUR/USD bounces and would rather wait to sell into strength.”
“We would recommend non-USD short euro exposures at this time, namely EUR/NOK or EUR/SEK.”
