06:45 EUR French CPI (MoM)

A higher than expected reading should be taken as positive/bullish for the EUR, while a lower than expected reading should be taken as negative/bearish for the EUR.
EUR/GBP Fundamental Analysis February 13, 2012, Forecast
Analysis and Recommendations:
The pair EUR/GBP is currently 0.8374 down slightly from the opening 0.8400. Worries about Greece once again sent the euro falling, as the Greek Finance Minister was sent back to Greece with an incomplete agreement. More political problems have also arisen in Greece making a deal more and more unlikely. It was expected that it would be a quiet day for the pair. After hitting bottom, the euro has moved back up off the low of 0.8351
No one can guess what is going to happen next.
