With the Greek debt crisis swept under the rug, waiting to reappear in four months again when the bulge in the middle of the Eurozone carpet cannot be ignored, the focus has now returned much more to the day-t0-day changes in economic data to once more govern the rates, rather than heightened uncertainty about a political situation that only had one course to go down in the first place!
Surprisingly, during the ongoing talks with the Greek delegation, positive economic data was emanating from the Eurozone. GDP growth was higher than expected in the Eurozone as a whole and not just brought up by Germany, but countries seemingly performing feebly like Italy had rallied. Eurozone unemployment yesterday came out 0.2% lower than expected against the Pound, this move eased the pressure on the Euro, which had been sitting at a 7-year low against Sterling.
Tomorrow, we have the latest Eurozone Retail Sales figures, which are always considered a key market mover. With the European Central Bank focusing their economic bailout towards increasing spending and therefore spending, these retail figures may already be coming back higher than expected. Essentially consumers will be wanting to buy ahead of the price rises that come with the 2% inflation the ECB is targetting.
