French data out a few moments ago.

  • -0.6% prev rev up from -1.6%
  • yy +2.0% vs +0.1% vs -0.2% prev rev up from -0.7%
  • mftg production +0.8% vs +0.5% exp vs 0.0% prev rev up from -0.8%
  • yy +2.8% vs +1.3% exp vs +0.8% prev rev up from +0.5%

Highest ind prod mm reading since Dec 2011 and a decent set of data for the ECB to throw into the mix. Yesterday Germany reported its fastest ind output rise in 6 years.

Not that the euro is paying any attention right now.

EURUSD 1.0967 EURGBP 0.7727 EURJPY 124.53 all still near session lows.
