Asian session: The euro was set for a third weekly decline against the dollar

The euro was set for a third weekly decline against the dollar, the longest streak in four months, before European Union leaders conclude a summit in Brussels today on financing needs for debt-saddled Greece.

The shared currency sank against most of its major peers this week before a report that may show a drop in business confidence in Germany, the euro-area’s biggest economy. 
The dollar was poised for its first weekly gain versus the yen in more than a month before U.S. data forecast to show orders for durable and capital goods rose in May. 
Australia’s dollar rose as gains in stocks supported demand for higher-yielding assets.

EUR/USD: the pair   decreased in  $1.4220 area.
GBP/USD: the pair  decreased in $1.5960  area.
USD/JPY: the pair holds on Y80.40-Y80-60.

The US calendar starts at 1200GMT, with the release of the May 2011 building permits revision is released.

The pace of GDP growth is expected to be revised up slightly to +2.0% for the third estimate of the first quarter. The chain price index is expected to be unrevised at +1.9%. The ISM manufacturing index is released at 1400GMT and is expected to fall to a reading of 53.0 in June after falling in May, according to advance forecasts.
