More good numbers from the area

Durable goods production jumps 1.3% following a 1.7% decline in June. Capital goods up 1.4% vs -1.5% prior. Steady progress being made in important areas and that will outweigh any further inflation weakness. We can probably assume that Germany is the main driver behind all this. Production there rose 0.5% vs -0.6% in June. Production also rose strongly in Ireland and Greece

EURUSD celebrates the good news by dropping down to the session lows at 1.1330
