Statistics from Germany caused pressure on the Euro.
Asian and European trading sessions:
Euro: After testing a 3-week’s high, the single currency fell today. The main reason for that was a report of Germany’s GDP and the EU as a whole for the second quarter, which showed slowing down of GDP growth in Germany (GDP fell to 0.1% versus +1.3% for the first quarter). As a result, the EUR/USD declined to the $1.4358 area.
British Pound: The GBP/USD was under pressure and pair decreased to $1.6318 during the Asian session. However, the strong inflation report in Britain helped this pair to return to $1.6382 level.
Japanese Yen: The USD/JPY remained trading between Y76.70 - Y76.90.
American trading session:
Swiss Franc: Swiss Franc reduced its achievements against the dollar and the euro after the report publication of the Industrial Production in the U.S., which was better than expected and amounted to 0.9% versus 0.4% in the previous period.
