“The
EUR’s failure to sustain gains above 1.15 last week suggest the
broader, sideways range in place in the past few months remains intact
and may tip the balance of risks towards renewed weakness in the single
currency towards the range base (1.05) in the medium-term”.
“Earlier,
stronger than expected German factory orders data gave the EUR a modest
boost intraday but gains through the low 1.14s proved brief. Eurogroup
ministers meet to discuss Greek aid today”.
