The Swiss Franc appreciated despite mixed producer prices data early in the European session. The Swiss Producer Price Index missed targets on a year-on-year basis at 1.0% vs 1.1%.<\/p><p>On a monthly basis, the PPI remained unchanged at 0.2% in April. The US economic file will feature Fed officials&#8217; speeches where investors will gather clues on the Fed rate path. The pair sank -0.17% after bulls failed to take 0.9000, a 5-week high, with targets at 0.8950 on the downside.<\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2Lg9zs6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EURGBP<\/a> slumped -0.20% after March Industrial output data shrank more than expected.

The risk-sensitive New Zealand dollar benefited from the improved risk mood ahead of the highly awaited Chinese data. Data from the Bank of Japan showed that the Producer Price Index contracted to 5.8% from an expected 7.1% in April.<\/p><p>The pair rose after establishing a low at 84.00 on the day. Bulls may be capped at the 84.80-85.00 level while a break above may give buyers room to soar to 86.00.<\/p><p>European stocks traded higher amid a recovery in the market mood.
