<p>One of the key factors contributing to this situation is the proactive stance taken by the European Central Bank (ECB) in response to the Federal Reserve's actions. The ECB decided to raise interest rates by 25 basis points to 4.25% per annum. Additionally, the central bank is strategically reducing the portfolio of securities acquired through the anti-<a href="https://blog.roboforex.com/blog/2021/06/11/how-to-trade-in-forex-during-crises/" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c="186" title="Crisis">crisis</a> asset purchase programme, with plans to reinvest the funds.

Additionally, data on income and personal spending of Americans will also be published, adding further interest to the day's market developments.</p>
