FXStreet (Córdoba) – EUR/USD remained pretty steady around 1.0900 following the release of softer-than-expected German inflation data.

The euro however, barely reacted to data, although it edged a few pips lower, sliding below the 1.0900 level to a low of 1.0885 in recent dealings. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 1.0890, still up 0.19% on the day.
