Overall, EUR/JPY is ranging across.

The Japanese Flash Manufacturing PMI data (Actual: 53.3, Forecast: 53.1, Previous: 52.7 revised from 52.0) released earlier today indicated a slight increase in the pace of expansion of the manufacturing sector.

During the monetary policy meeting yesterday, the European Central Bank (ECB) held its monetary policy unchanged. The Pandemic Emergency Purchase Programme (PEPP) will still continue with a total envelope of €1,850 billion until at least the end of March 2022 while the Asset Purchase Programme (APP) will continue at a monthly pace of €20 billion. Although ECB President Lagarde acknowledged that progress has been made in the recovery of the eurozone economy, it is still early at the moment to cut back on bond purchasing.

The French flash PMI data will be released later at 1515 (SGT).

• French Flash Service PMI (Forecast: 46.6, Previous: 48.2 revised from 47.8)
