Citi Foreign Exchange strategists believe that, to a large extent, the upcoming July 9 tariff negotiation deadline may be an "insignificant event" for the G10 Forex. On the EU side, Citi's basic forecast is that the two sides will reach an agreement framework by July 9, when the 10% tariff rate will be extended and negotiations will continue. "Given the recent strengthening of the euro, they speculate that such news will be slightly positive for the euro, but not necessarily an important driving factor, as a lot of good news has been reflected in the euro price. "On the issue of Japan, Citi believes that the possibility of reaching a deal is declining given Trump's recent remarks. Citi said: "The risk of a hike in Japan's tariffs seems to be the highest. "The bank expects the United States and Japan to climb to 150 this summer, and then fall below 140 later this year. As the Bank of Japan expects to implement policies to normalize, the yen will return to its strength.
