Reasons useful as always

UK Services PMI march: 52.4 vs 51.5 exp

Posted: 04 Apr 2013 01:28 AM PDT

  • 51.8 prev

This is the one that generally bails the UK out of the mire

Cable up 15 ticks to 1.5080 but muted reaction really suggesting the pair still has selling interest

Markit says this week’s PMI data should produce +0.1% uk GDP and avoid triple dip recession.. hardly going to move us forward though.. since when has 0.1% growth been a wow factor ?

EUR lower again after weak services PMI data

Posted: 04 Apr 2013 01:09 AM PDT

Weaker data has undermined the euro in the past 30 mins

Can’t expect too much more ahead of ECB but we’ll see continuing volatility.
