The euro is weaker against the pound and stronger against the dollar this morning, unfazed by the German Chancellor’s announcement that the lockdown there could be extended. Angela Merkel warned that the lockdown may last for 8 to 10 weeks if the numbers don’t improve.
President of the European Central Bank, Christine Lagarde, will speak this morning. This will be followed by industrial production figures, which are expected to show a drop month-on-month in November.
