Euro futures finished the week higher following GDP data.

Euro futures experienced a modest rally during Friday's session, finding significant support near the 1.18525 level. The currency finished the week higher by approximately 0.33%, marking its first positive weekly close in three weeks. Preliminary Eurozone Q4 GDP data met market expectations with a year-over-year increase of 1.3% and a quarter-over-quarter growth rate of 0.3%. Price action remained relatively neutral as the European Central Bank maintained its current stance. Market dynamics were further influenced by the compression of U.S. and German yield spreads, as U.S. yields declined more significantly than Bund yields across the curve. The 10-Year yield spread tightened to 128 bps, a move that historically supports the euro as capital flows adjust to changing yield differentials.
