EURUSD gains after preliminary Eurozone PMI data 💡

Flash PMIs readings surprised, with values higher for industry and worse for the services sector. The commentary on the reports indicates that France is likely to stagnate in the first quarter of 2024, but the risks of this scenario are directed downwards. On the other hand, the data for Germany point to continued recession. The ECB is currently in a very challenging position, as on the one hand it is struggling with weakening economic momentum and on the other hand the spectrum of possible interest rate cuts is reduced by rising wages.

Manufacturing: 46.6 vs. Exp. 44.7(Prev 44.4)
