[ad_1] Daily EUR\/USD The euro posted its strongest three-day rally in over two years, rising 3.1% to $1.07. The sharp move prompted major banks, including Deutsche Bank and MUFG, to revise their euro forecasts higher, abandoning previous predictions of a drop to parity. The catalyst for the surge was Germany\u2019s plan to modify its debt brake rules, allowing increased defense and infrastructure spending. This shift in fiscal policy, combined with the European Commission\u2019s proposal to borrow \u20ac150 billion for defense funding, has bolstered confidence in the euro.
