As no central bank can match the pace of Fed’s hiking, short EUR/USD? 

Overnight FOMC meeting shows that December hike is a lock, while those in 2019 remain wild cards. 

  • The Fed raised interest rates for a third time this year, and its forecast shows a strong consensus for a fourth hike in December, locking in a final hike absent some shock
  • The ‘dot plot’ showed a wide range of views for 2019, with considerable support for two, three or even four hikes next year
  • FOMC brushed aside any possible impact of trade disputes and tariffs, raising its GDP forecast for next year
  • EUR/USD short remains attractive amid the monetary policy divergence between the two countries
