Spain CPI rose 0.2% (MoM) and 2.8% (YoY) – consensus of 0.1% and 2.7% - in February, with HICP also having a higher final reading of 0.1% and 2.9%, against 0.0% and 2.8% consensus.
France nonfarm payrolls fell -0.2% in Q4 2012 (QoQ), following a -0.2% drop in Q3 that was revised from -0.3%. The final reading of French February CPI (EU norm) came in at 0.3% (MoM) and 1.2% (YoY).
“The market is under pinned by the 91.88 4 month uptrend, and while above here a bullish bias is entrenched. Additional support is offered at 94.77/93.78 (February high and the 20 day ma)”, wrote Commerzbank analyst Karen Jones, targeting 99.70 (50% retracement of the 2007 to 2011 drop) and then 101.40/67 (the 2000 and 2005 lows) on the longer term.
