This week in currency news

Most of this week’s data releases come from the Eurozone, so those of you who are looking at sending payments in Euros should keep a close eye on exchange rates. The only major UK data is Friday’s trade balance and PPI figures, while in the States we have a bank holiday today and very little of interest later in the week.
