The euro weakened against the yen before a report economists say will show a contraction in industrial output, stoking concern the region’s growth is stalling.

The common currency dropped  after International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde urged policy makers to be vigilant over global economic stability.

Lagarde, speaking in Beijing yesterday, said oil prices, debt levels, and the risk of slowing growth in emerging markets threaten global economic stability.

“Optimism should not give us a sense of comfort or lull us into a false sense of security,” she said. “We cannot go back to business as usual.”
