This week’s sentiment analysis breaks down the key drivers and technical structures shaping EURUSD, GBPUSD, USDJPY, USDCAD, USDCHF, AUDUSD, GBPJPY, and CADJPY.
Markets enter the week of January 19–23, 2026 with a familiar mix of themes: a structurally weaker U.S. dollar, persistent focus on inflation dynamics in Europe and the UK, and growing attention on central bank signaling from the Bank of Japan and the Bank of Canada.
This week’s calendar is dense but well‑structured:
EUR: December CPI
GBP: Employment data and December inflation
CAD: CPI and Retail Sales
JPY: Inflation and the BoJ rate decision

As a result, major pairs are likely to trade in a regime where USD weakness remains the core narrative, but local stories in GBP, CAD, and JPY can temporarily dominate price action.
