FXStreet (Mumbai) - The EUR/USD pair fell to 1.2035 levels, lowest since July 2012, after the French manufacturing PMI dropped to a 4-month low in December.

The pair currently trades 0.47% lower for the day at 1.2047 levels. The French manufacturing PMI in December was confirmed at a 4-month low of 47.5. However, the German manufacturing PMI was confirmed in expansion territory at 51.2, up from the 17-month low of 49.5 in November. Meanwhile, the Eurozone manufacturing PMI was confirmed at50.6, slightly lower from the November’s 50.8.
