  • Prior 55.6

Preliminary readings can be found here. Misses from German prints here pretty much offsets the French readings seen earlier. A mixed bag so far in the services and composite prints from Europe. But the services reading holds much better than August and that counteracts the weak manufacturing print seen earlier on Monday.

Not going to do much for the euro though. EUR/USD still at 1.1580 and EUR/JPY sits near the highs at 131.88.
