Weak final PMI data for European industry. Data below 50, which indicates continued difficulties for the sector, and the final readings themselves are also worse than expected. Slightly dovish data for the Euro, so it is worth keeping a close eye on possible changes in the 1.08 zone, which is currently being tested
