EUR/GBP is coming closer to 0.79…again

FXStreet (Moscow) - EUR/GBP opened the day at 0.7924, slid to 0.7912, and may go even further.

History repeating

And again the situation is repeated – there were two factors that may have an impact on the pair. First, we paid attention to the German IFO survey, and it was much weaker than expected thus failing to convince the market the Germany is still strong enough to bear the burden of periphery. Second, we saw the UK GDP meeting expectations, and it did put the pound under additional pressure. Thus, no wonder, the pair is sliding, but not that fast. The initial target to the downside may lie at 0.7895.
