Analysis and Recommendations:

The EUR/JPY gained 10 points to trade at 136.06 as the euro gained as the US dollar declined as traders worried about lackluster economics data and as well as warning from Wall Street majors.  Germany’s Economy Ministry yesterday cut its 2014 forecast to 1.2 percent from 1.8 percent, and reduced its estimate for next year to 1.3 percent from 2 percent. China’s consumer prices rose the least in almost five years and factory-gate prices fell the most since April, official data showed today.

Per Bloomberg, the euro has dropped 0.3 percent in the past three months according to Bloomberg Correlation Weighted Indexes, which track 10 developed-nation currencies. The dollar is up 5.7 percent and the yen has gained 1 percent. The common currency, battered by prospects of the European Central Bank easing monetary policy further to stave off deflation in the euro zone, had stooped to a two-year low.

he yen climbed for a sixth day against a basket of nine peers as futures signaled Asian stocks will drop after the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index touched a six-month low yesterday.
