The latest EU industrial production data has just been released. The markets were expecting a lower reading of +0.2% in April, down from a revised 0.5% rise in March. The actual data revealed a 0.1% fall. The annualised number is even worse, falling by 3%, where a 1.9% fall was forecast. The EUR/USD has so far not reacted to this poor data, but that is not to say it will not. Earlier this morning the EUR/USD ran into a big buyer at 1.0801. A lot of volume went through the market at that price point, but it held and that saw it edge back above 1.0810 over the following couple of hours.
