German data misses the mark but does anyone care? DAX futures higher

The latest German industrial orders have just been released and the numbers were not good. New orders were forecast to rise by 0.5% in May. They have actually fallen by 1.6% and that is some miss. However, and as usual this data often falls on deaf ears when it comes to any market reaction. So, right now it seems the weakness of the US data seen yesterday is still eclipsing anything emerging from Germany this morning. The DAX futures are certainly no lower just now and neither is the EUR/USD. The DAX is still priced to open higher this morning. The index enjoyed a good session yesterday, rising by 1.16%, closing 210 points higher, at 18,374. The index is currently priced to reopen in around one hour at 18,420
