FXStreet (Mumbai) - The German inflation was reported higher as expected by the markets, but the EUR/GBP is having a tough time cheering the same.
Hovers around 0.7045
The cross continues to trade around 0.7045; largely unchanged after the German preliminary Nov CPI was reported as expected at 0.1% m/m and 0.4% y/y. An uptick in inflation was in line with the estimates and thus EUR traders hardly reacted to the data.
The cross may witness action later today following the release of the US housing and regional manufacturing data, but a main focus is now on the UK manufacturing data due tomorrow.
