    Gerry,
    Even if itis so, what does it mean for EURUSD? Move up?
    I’m always confused with Chinease. :)

    Cheers

    If it’s infact correct it probably doesn’t mean too much for eur/usd, as the difference between that number and median forecast is only slight. if we got a much better than expected number, say 53+, then id expect EUR/USD to get a decent boost. putting it in simple terms, obviously a good number is a sign of chinese economic health and would underpin the risk trade ie eur/usd.
