According to the data, in December producer prices rose by 0.2% compared with the previous month, but , nevertheless, were 0.8% lower than in December 2012 . Recall that prices fell in October and November - by 0.5% and 0.1%, respectively.

Data released last week by Eurostat showed that consumer prices rose 0.7 % in January, compared with an increase of 0.8 % in December , reinforcing fears that a prolonged period of low inflation will be difficult for the eurozone to address its economic imbalances and reduce the large debt.

During the session of the published data , which showed that in the United States by the end of the month of December , new orders for manufactured goods fell markedly , while offset by an increase , which was celebrated last month. Experts note that the decrease in orders , was mainly due to the sharp decline in demand for transport equipment. The report said that factory orders fell 1.5 percent in December , compared with a revised downward by 1.5 percent increase in November. Economists had expected orders to fall by about 1.1 percent compared with growth of 1.8 percent in the previous month , which was originally reported.

Pound previously has grown significantly against the U.S. dollar , which helped the publication of a positive report by Britain.

According to the report , with the seasonally adjusted index of business activity in the construction sector grew in January to a level of 64.6 points compared to 62.1 points in December . We add that the index remains above the neutral mark of 50.0 points , which separates expansion from contraction, for the ninth consecutive month. Also, note that the latter value was the highest since August 2007. According to experts , this indicator should be reduced to the level of 61.6 points.

Australian dollar rose by two figures against the U.S. dollar , which was associated with a decision by the RBA rates. Reserve Bank of Australia today decided to keep its benchmark interest rate at a record low - 2.5 percent , and noted that a period of stability in interest rates may be "the most sensible course " at the moment.

Monetary policy bank " appropriately configured to ensure sustainable growth in demand and inflation in accordance with the purpose ," said the head of Glenn Stevens said in a statement today. " Based on current evidence, the most prudent course would be a period of stability in interest rates ," he added .

The Board of Directors expects that inflation will be slightly higher than stated in the forecasts three months ago , but will be in line with the target of 2-3 percent over the next two years. Higher inflation , currency devaluation and rising house prices may be causing the Reserve Bank decision to refrain from further easing of monetary policy . Recall that the RBA will cut interest rates by 225 basis points since November 2011 to help the economy to support demand in areas outside the resources sector , taking into account the damping mining boom .

The yen ended a four-day advance against the euro after BOJ data showed the nation’s monetary base posted the second-biggest surge on record. A 52 percent jump in Japan’s monetary base in January was the biggest on record after a 53 percent climb in November. The balance stood at 200.9 trillion yen ($1.98 trillion), which the central bank plans to increase to 270 trillion yen by the end of this year.

The central bank is doubling the provision of money in two years to combat deflation. The BOJ’s easing has had the intended impact so far, Governor Haruhiko Kuroda told Japanese parliament today. Annual inflation will accelerate toward the central bank’s goal of 2 percent from the end of the current fiscal year in March 2015 to the following 12-month period, Kuroda said.

The Australian dollar rose after the Reserve Bank left interest unchanged and said conditions in emerging markets are considerably more challenging than a year ago. Government bonds pared gains.

The euro depreciated versus the dollar before the European Central Bank meets this week as concern over weakening inflation in the region grows.
