The EUR/USD pair currently trades in the 1.0210 price zone after peaking at 1.0293, its highest in almost a month.
Tensions between the US and China are the latest catalyst for the market’s dismal mood. Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the US House of Representatives, is expected to meet Taiwan’s President on Wednesday, a high-profile non-programmed visit that China condemns.
