EUR/USD Holds Just Above 1.1610 Despite Weak German Industrial Production

EUR/USD trades flat, hovering just above 1.1610 at the European open on Monday. Soft German industrial production was not supportive, and rising oil amid Middle East tension adds euro pressure, but USD rallies remain capped with US markets closed for Labor Day.

Industrial production — two consensus splits

Germany’s July industrial production fell 1.1% month on month. On the Destatis side of the tape: forecast +0.1%, prior revised to 0.0% from a provisional +0.2%. A separate consensus on the same print sat at 0.3% with previous 0.2%. Both splits are quoted; they are not averaged. Year on year, output contracted 1.6%.
