The European currency received some support after the data on business activity in the EU was released. French Manufacturing PMI for November reached 54.6 points instead of 53.6 for October. A similar indicator in Germany was 57.6 points, which corresponds to 57.8 points a month earlier. Manufacturing PMI in the EU countries is at 58.6 points, higher than 58.3 points for the previous period. Service PMI in France increased to 58.2 points from 56.6 points earlier.

The positive trend of the European currency could not reverse the downtrend of the pair, which is under pressure from the growing US dollar. Yesterday, the American currency index renewed its year’s high around 96.560, when it became known that the candidacy of the incumbent head of the US Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, was nominated for a second term. According to US President Joe Biden, the department under the leadership of Powell operates most effectively.
