Strong US statistics should've brought sharp decline in the EUR / USD pair, however, movement yesterday was a lot smaller than expected, amounting to only 20 pips down from the level of 1.1709.

Today is the same as the upcoming reports also pose certain risks for the euro, one of which is the data on production activity in the eurozone.
