The euro traded against the US dollar at 1.3305 US dollars, down 0.37%; the US dollar to the yen was 82 yen, up 0.32%; the euro and the yen fell 109.10 on Tuesday to 109.10 yen.

According to the US Department of Commerce report, the number of factory orders in the US grew by 0.7% in November, much higher than the 0.1% increase expected by the market.

Statistics show that the US economic growth is showing a good trend.

Analysts also pointed out that, on the whole, the dollar will continue to fluctuate before the employment figures are released on Friday, December.

Eurozone data showed that the consumer price index of the 16 countries in the euro area grew by 2.2% in December and increased by 1.9% in November, according to the European Union statistics on Tuesday.

In December, the growth rate was higher than the 2% rate that the market generally expected, and for the first time since November 2008, it was higher than the European Central Bank's "close to but slightly lower than 2%" forecast value.

Higher than expected inflation rate may lead to the European Central Bank earlier than expected to take interest rate measures, to a certain extent to promote the euro.

However, some analysts pointed out that the data in December had little influence, and the initial data were not enough to show that prices were under pressure.

Energy, food and other commodity futures prices should be the main cause of rising consumer prices.
