EURUSD gains slightly in the first part of the day following the publication of PMI reports from major European countries. The final reports for industry show readings in line with expectations or slightly better. However, compared to November's data, most markets record a month-on-month decline. The exceptions are the solid data from Italy and Spain, which record increases, with the data from Spain even remaining well above the 50-point threshold.
