The EUR/USD exchange rate pulled back on Monday as the market reacted to the rising geopolitical risks and rising crude oil prices. The pair retreated to 1.1522, down from this month's high of 1630 Tensions and Inflation Risks

The EUR/USD pair reacted to the ongoing tensions in the Middle East after Donald Trump bombed top Iranian nuclear sites, leading to concerns about a wider conflict in the region.

Crude oil prices have already surged by over 30% from their lowest levels this year, and analysts warn that the trend will continue. Shipping prices have also jumped in the past few months, which will continue as risks about the Strait of Hormuz continue.

This, trend will likely lead to higher consumer prices in the United States and other countries. As a result, there is a likelihood that the Federal Reserve will maintain a more hawkish tone this year.

The bank left interest rates unchanged between 4.25% and 4.50% in its meeting last week. Officials, using the dot plot, predicted that they would deliver two cuts this year, and four in 2026 and 2027.

Donald Trump has pushed the Fed to slash interest rates by at least 1%. He believes that the high interest rates were costing the US billions of dollars in interest payments. He also believes that high rates were putting the US at an unfair advantage compared to other countries.

The next key catalyst for the EUR/USD pair will be the upcoming US and European flash manufacturing and services PMI numbers. Economists expect the data to show that Europe's manufacturing PMI rose slightly to 49.7, while the services one rose from 50.2 to 50.5.

The other top economic data will be the upcoming US consumer confidence on Tuesday, GDP on Thursday, and Friday's PCE data.
