The US economic data on Wednesday suggested that the US economy cools down and the markets believe that the Federal Reserve (Fed) is done with hiking cycle. The US Producer Price Index (PPI) dropped 0.5% MoM in October from 0.4% increase in September.

On the Euro front, the Eurozone Industrial Production for September declined 1.1% MoM versus 0.6% rise prior. On the yearly basis, the figure fell 6.9% from the 5.1% decline in the previous reading. This, in turn, exert some selling pressure on the Euro against the Greenback.
