BREAKING: EUR dips after mixed German ZEW data

German ZEW indices for April were released today at 10:00 am BST. Data turned out to be mixed - expectations index missed expectations by dropping from 13.0 to 4.1 (exp. 15.6) while the current conditions index improved from -40 to -32.5 (exp. -46.5). ZEW Institute noted in a commentary to the release that there is still a lot of uncertainty in the financial markets and that it may cause banks to be more cautious with loans. On top of that, ZEW economists see high inflation and restrictive monetary policy as weighing on the economy.
