EUR/USD market players hope for a return to economic growth by mid-2021.
Central banks are likely to maintain their ultra-loose monetary policy for longer than the pandemic.
EUR/USD price has turned bullish after breaking above a descendant trend line coming from 2008.
A pandemic disrupted financial markets and the global economy in 2020, and the greenback is the overall loser. The EUR/USD pair has reached levels last seen in 2018, not far from that year´s peak at 1.2554. After almost a year of pessimism, investors are stubbornly optimistic, with Wall Street trading at record highs. And this is taking place just a few months after major economies posted their largest economic contractions in decades.
