1Commerzbank warns that hesitation from the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBT) could trigger a sharper sell-off of the Lira.

Commerzbank has released a new analysis focusing on the asymmetric risk skew for the EUR/USD pair, driven by ceasefire developments and Federal Reserve (Fed) policy dynamics. The bank suggests that geopolitical shifts are creating a non-linear impact on the Euro's performance against the US Dollar. According to the report, market expectations regarding the Fed's future rate path are significantly influencing the pair's current trajectory. This update marks a shift from previous concerns over the Turkish Lira toward broader macroeconomic and geopolitical factors affecting major currency pairs. Analysts highlight that any breakthrough or setback in international negotiations could trigger sharp volatility in EUR/USD. Investors are advised to remain cautious as political developments continue to overshadow traditional economic indicators.
