United Overseas Bank’s (UOB) Quek Ser Leang highlights that EUR/USD underperformed on Monday, slipping to 1.1210 as French political unrest and Ukraine-Russia tensions weighed on the Euro (EUR). The pair is seen trapped in a short-term 1.1185–1.1235 band, while the broader 1.1160–1.1280 range dominates. UOB also suggests the early-September decline may have bottomed near 1.1112, allowing for a corrective recovery.
