EUR/USD weakens afterTurkey raises rates
FXstreet.com (Córdoba) - The EUR/USD finished Tuesday trading around 1.3670, practically flat, but started Wednesday on a weak note falling toward 1.3650 after the Turkish Central Bank announced a bigger-than-expected increase in interest rates. So far the pair bottomed at 1.3548, price located 22 pips above Tuesday's lows.
The sharp decline in the EUR/TRY, that since the announcement has lost more than a thousand pips, weakened the Euro across the board.
