The euro fell sharply against major currencies after the ECB decided to lower its key policy rates to a new record low , and the lending rate , as some analysts predicted after last week's euro zone inflation data came out much worse than expected. The Governing Council of the ECB lowered its main refinancing rate by 25 basis points up to 0.25 %. The bank also lowered the rate of lending by 25 basis points to 0.75 %, while the deposit rate remained unchanged at 0.00%. ECB refrained from lowering rates in May . Now all attention turned to the speech of the Central Bank , Mario Draghi , who will comment on the government's decision at a press conference scheduled for 13:30 GMT.

Previously, the pressure on the single currency had data on German industrial production . The volume of German industrial production fell more than expected to 0.9 percent in September , although the two-month average suggests that the situation in the industry in Europe's largest economy is on the path to growth. Industrial production declined in spite of the consensus forecast of economists, who had expected growth of 0.2 percent. The value in August was revised upwards by 0.2 percentage points , and recorded a growth of 1.6 percent. The two-month average showed a slight increase in production of 0.6 percent , according to the Ministry of Economy. " Production in the manufacturing sector as a whole is on the way up , despite a slight decrease in the current level," the ministry said .

The pound fell against the dollar after the ECB decision , but previously ignored the decision of the Bank of England to keep monetary policy unchanged. At the last meeting of the Bank of England did not bring any surprises markets , leaving the key lending rate at a record low 0.5 %, where it has been since March 2009 , while the purchase of assets remained at £ 375 billion the central bank announced its intention to keep rates at a low level as long as the rate b / d in Britain will not fall below 7% , which is not expected before 2016. The latest economic forecasts willows within the inflation report will be published on 13 November. Minutes of this meeting will be made public on Wednesday, November 20.
