ECB Cuts Interest Rates by a Quarter-point to 3%
The European Central Bank has cut interest rates for the fourth time this year amid political turmoil in its largest economies, France and Germany.
Policymakers cut the deposit rate from 3.25% to 3%, having begun cutting from a record high of 4% in June. This is the rate for banks to make overnight deposits and also serves as the main tool for the ECB to steer the monetary policy stance.

Nvidia Expands Workforce in China to Drive AI-Powered Vehicles
Nvidia Corp. ($NVDA) has significantly bolstered its presence in China, hiring hundreds of new employees this year to strengthen its R&D efforts and advance autonomous driving technologies.

This includes a notable increase of about 200 hires in Beijing, where the company is building a robust team of researchers dedicated to self-driving solutions.

Meanwhile, subdued inflation data from the US added to the uncertainty, prompting traders to adopt a wait-and-see approach. The focus now shifts to upcoming macroeconomic releases and their potential impact on the euro's trajectory.
