FXStreet (Edinburgh) – EUR/USD has now reverted the negative mood that has been prevailing since early trade, rebounding from the 1.0860 area to session tops around 1.0910.

EUR/USD stronger on EUR/GBP

The increasing weakness around the British pound and the consequent climb in EUR/GBP is boosting the pair to levels above the 1.0900 handle, showing some signs of life in an otherwise apathetic session.

Previously, spot paid little attention to better-than-expected ZEW Survey results in Germany and slightly higher consumer prices in the euro bloc during December, with market participants showing a cautious trade in light of the upcoming ECB meeting.
