The recently released industrial production data in Germany was ignored by markets even though the figure was better than expected. The revised Q4 GDP of the eurozone also passed by, most likely because traders are more focused on the upcoming US labor market report. Should employment figures from ADP exceed expectations, euro and pound will decline further, which will result in a prolonged bear market. And even if the data disappoints, traders are unlikely to rush buying, so don't expect any optimism in the two currencies.
