EUR/USD steady after German CPI data
|
EUR/USD held pretty much unchanged near daily highs following the release of flash German CPI figures.
Data showed, German CPI is seen rising 0.2% in October 2016 and 0.8% on annual basis, according to a preliminary estimate, mainly in line with expectations of 0.1% and 0.8% increases expected respectively. The harmonised index of consumer prices for Germany calculated for European purposes is estimated to be up 0.7% year on year, and 0.2% MoM, versus 0.6% and 0.1% respectively.
However, EUR/USD barely moved after data as investors focus now turn to US GDP figures for the third quarter due at 12:30 GMT. At time of writing, EUR/USD is trading at 1.0921, up % on the day, attempting to regain momentum following two consecutive days of rejections from the 1.0945 area.
