Good Morning:
FX markets kept rates range bound-but it was a busy morning of data and activity.
Manufacturing data in the Euro Zone showed a robust number-which is the highest reading in 11 years, and confirmed the estimates that analyst had expected. This data also helped keep German unemployment lower. The unemployment rate has now dropped to 7.3% in Germany. This is an indication that growth in the region continues to expand-and hopefully the economic recovery in Germany will spread to the smaller EU nations.
In Australia-the RBA kept interest rates unchanged at 4.75%-which was expected.
World equity markets are higher-as are US Futures.

Good Morning:
FX markets were range bound in Asia and early European trading-as the markets await this morning’s employment data.
The Euro lost some traction in overnight trading against the USD and JPY as investors sold bonds from the “smaller” EU countries, as concerns over their sovereign debt issues continue to plague the region.
Equity markets were mostly lower-as are US Futures at this time.
