Flash PMI indices for June were a key point in today's European economic calendar. As usual, attention was mostly paid to readings from France and Germany at 8:15 am BST and 8:30 am BST, respectively.
French data turned out to a negative surprise. While manufacturing gauge ticked lower more or less in-line with market expectations, services reading turned out to be a huge disappointment with the index plunging from 52.0 to 48.0 and into a contraction territory. EUR took a hit on the release with EURUSD dropping below 1.09.
