US PPI inflation report for November was released today at 1:30 pm GMT. Report was expected to show a deceleration in headline as well as core producers' price growth. However, it should be said that this was a second-tier data release, given that CPI inflation report was already released yesterday.
Actual report surprised to the downside with both headline and core measures coming in below market expectations. On a monthly basis, headline and core price remained unchanged from the previous month. Release triggered a dovish reaction in the market with USD dropping and equities gaining. Market attention now shifts to FOMC rate decision, scheduled for 7:00 pm GMT.

EURUSD jumped in a knee-jerk move, following lower-than-expected US PPI reading for November. However, majority of those gains has been erased already. Source: xStation5
