0935 GMT [Dow Jones] EUR/USD continues to squeeze its range highs ahead of Thursday's risk events. However, given the potential for a surprise Thursday, Barclays Capital says its surprised the market is keen to break the range, especially given thin trading conditions. The bank says it fears a "buy the rumor, sell the fact" scenario is developing, and views Wednesday's breakout above 1.5840 with suspicion, believing prospects of a false topside break as high. EUR/USD now at 1.5806, BarCap looks for a 1.57-1.5885 range to hold. (GST)
