  "account": "Commerzbank’s Volkmar Baur observed the EUR/USD briefly dropping to 1.115 before bouncing back above 1.12, as French bond yields steadied and sentiment improved following the IMF World Economic Outlook.

A slight downturn in actual inflation could therefore provide some relief to the Federal Reserve and bond markets, potentially supporting the euro.",
