Forex Trading News – Euro zone CPI and Money Supply
Important: This page is part of archived content and may be outdated.
The European Central Bank released the M3 Money Supply figures today for May, the year over year indicator appreciated at 2.4%, despite the forecast for 2.1%. The 3m moving average Money Supply indicator has climbed to 2.2%, marginally above the forecast of 2.1% and the previous rate of 2.1%. The M3 data is an important indicator of inflation in the single currency community. The Euro zone Consumer Price Index came out at 2.7%, same as May number, though, slightly below of the expectation of 2.8%. CPI is released by Eurostat and it is a significant measure of changes in purchasing trends and inflation in the Zone. High readings are considered as positive for the Euro. After the announcement of the CPI the Euro has lost some 23 pips to touch 1.4463 against the US Dollar. However, the single currency has rebounded quickly climbing up to 1.4489 at 10:35 GMT. The pair now is trading at 1.4478, holding the vast majority of its gains from the four day rally.

Cookies are small data files. When you visit a website, the website sends the cookie to your computer. Your computer stores it in a file located inside your web browser.
Cookies do not transfer viruses or malware to your computer. Because the data in a cookie does not change when it travels back and forth, it has no way to affect how your computer runs, but they act more like logs (i.e. they record user activity and remember stateful information) and they get updated every time you visit a website.
We may obtain information about you by accessing cookies, sent by our website. Different types of cookies keep track of different activities. For example, session cookies are used only when a person is actively navigating a website. Once you leave the website, the session cookie disappears.
Why are cookies useful?
We use functional cookies to analyse how visitors use our website, as well as track and improve our website’s performance and function. This allows us to provide a high-quality customer experience by quickly identifying and fixing any issues that may arise. For example, we might use cookies to keep track of which website pages are most popular and which method of linking between website pages is most effective. The latter also helps us to track if you were referred to us by another website and improve our future advertising campaigns.
Another use of cookies is to store your log in sessions, meaning that when you log in to the Members Area to deposit funds, a "session cookie" is set so that the website remembers that you have already logged in. If the website did not set this cookie, you will be asked for your login and password on each new page as you progress through the funding process.
In addition, functional cookies, for example, are used to allow us to remember your preferences and identify you as a user, ensure your information is secure and operate more reliably and efficiently. For example, cookies save you the trouble of typing in your username every time you access our trading platform, and recall your preferences, such as which language you wish to see when you log in.
