EUR/USD: Real yields remain a key factor
EUR/USD Trends Amid Energy Market Turbulence
Many experts, ourselves included, anticipated that the EUR/USD exchange rate would decline following the recent energy disruptions in the Middle East. This expectation was largely based on patterns seen in 2022, when Europe's reliance on imported fossil fuels led to a significant deterioration in its terms of trade, while the United States benefited from its energy self-sufficiency.
However, in the current rapidly changing landscape, the impact of central banks' monetary policies can sometimes be underestimated. In fact, the recent shift towards a more aggressive tightening by the European Central Bank compared to the Federal Reserve—reflected in nominal interest rates—may have offered some unexpected support to the euro against the dollar.

Successfully recovered the Starship upper stage, SpaceX debuts “chopstick ship-clamp,” analyst: the most critical step supporting its trillion-dollar valuation
SpaceX has, for the first time, used the launch tower's mechanical arm to catch the Starship spacecraft mid-air, setting a precedent for orbital spacecraft recovery via tower mechanism in aerospace history. Bernstein analysts believe this is a key step supporting SpaceX's multitrillion-dollar valuation—full reusability will significantly reduce orbital costs, directly enhancing Starlink deployment efficiency and raising the commercial ceiling. Morgan Stanley warns that the market is underestimating the value of this mission, as it will significantly lower execution risks tied to commercial reuse and the expansion of AI-powered space computing capacity.
