Invesco CurrencyShares Euro Trust’s ETF, FXE, closed out 2025 with a notable wave of redemptions, posting outflows of $5,427,500 on December 31, 2025. The move trimmed the fund’s assets under management to $422.84 million, with the latest withdrawal representing roughly 1.28% of total AUM—significant for a single trading day in a relatively specialized currency vehicle.
The outflow suggests investors may be tactically reducing euro exposure after a muted quarter for the common currency. While a 1.3% swing in AUM won’t redefine FXE’s long-term trajectory, it underlines how sensitive currency-focused ETFs can be to shifts in interest-rate expectations, European macro data, and U.S. dollar sentiment at key calendar junctures such as year-end positioning.
The related asset, FX:EUR-USD, is currently trading at 1.16826, having posted a modest 0.34% gain over the past three months. Despite the fresh outflows from FXE, the pair’s short-term technical backdrop remains constructive, with a 1-day signal of Buy. This divergence—investors pulling capital from a euro ETF while near-term signals stay bullish—may reflect profit-taking and balance-sheet management rather than a wholesale shift in conviction on the euro’s direction.
