EUR/USD at 1.4255 presently is all but unchanged from where North America closed out Tuesday with the overnight range a narrow 1.4237-1.4275.
Euro zone data due today strictly second tier and as such unlikely to ellicit any marked reaction:
07:00 GMT: German import prices for November
07:45 GMT: French consumer spending for November expected +0.5% m/m, +3.3% y/y
08:30 GMT: Italian consumer confidence index for December expected 112.7 from 112.8
09:00 GMT: Italian retail sales for October expected +0.1% m/m, -1.8% y/y
European stocks look likely to open firmer this morning.
