Analysis and Recommendations:
The EUR/GBP climbed to 0.8114 adding 20 pips on the celebration of the Queens Jubilee. Today is a bank holiday in the UK and no markets are open in honor of the Queens celebration.
Heightening European economic worries led to pressure on the euro in the last week as the currency slipped around 0.7 percent. Economic data from the eurozone was also discouraging and led to views in the markets that the 17-nation eurozone would slowdown further, considering the unresolved debt crisis.
Italian Manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) rose to 44.8-level in May as against previous mark of 43.8 in April. Italian Monthly Unemployment Rate rose to 10.2 percent in April from 10.1 percent in March. European Final Manufacturing was at 45.1-level in last month compared to 45-mark in April. European Unemployment Rate increased to 11 percent in April with respect to 10.9 percent in March.
