Strong PMI data out of German has underpinned the euro. Remarks over the weekend by San Francisco Fed president Williams that there was a strong case for a December rate hike had been the catalyst for dollar buying, which also sparked a broader decline in commodity prices.<\/p>\n<p>German PMIs much stronger than expected, with the manufacturing reading rising to 52.6 from 52.1 and the services reading jumping to 55.6 from 54.5, which left the composite at 54.9, up from 54.2 in October.<\/p>\n<p>The EUR\/USD tested the 1.06 level pushing through last week\u2019s low, and then rebounded slightly to the 1.0627 level.
