The German PMI data allay worries of a worse recession and strengthen the common euro. The German data shows weakeness.

After the publication of the latest flash German PMI numbers. Purchasing activity heats upward and futures prices reach a new daily peak in the 1.0930 range
According to the initial economic activity data from the HCOB poll. The decline in German’s service and industrial sectors improved slightly in Nov.

Aside from that, the development of new US dollar reselling, driven by milder US Federal Reserve projections. Which appears to be additional factor driving the euro versus the US dollar upwards.
Markets are betting on US Fed’s future stance on rates policy
The DXY, is struggling to capitalize on its current comeback following its lowest value before August 31st. That was reached on Tuesday as a result of wagers on whether the US Fed has finished hiking interest rates. Rather, present-day pricing predicts likely the Federal Reserve will decrease interest from in May 2024 by over 50 percent. This has been bolstered by a further decline in US government bond rates. And this puts selling pressure on the dollar and supports the EURUSD duo cross rate.
The previously mentioned underlying background, together with ECB Lagarde’s hardline statements early in the week. Increases expectations for an additional short-term appreciation in the price of spot currencies. Lagarde stated at a Berlin meeting that it is too soon to proclaim success against price increases. As well as that predictions made on immediate flow of data are inappropriate. This leads markets to lower their hopes concerning the Banks’s future action, which is expected to involve a rate decrease.
