Eurozone June current account balance €4.2 billion vs -€4.5 billion prior

The non-seasonally adjusted figure also sees a return to surplus of €3.2 billion, from -€15.4 billion previously. It is a welcome development after higher energy and raw material prices led the current account to a deficit in the prior two months. That said, the negative terms of trade shock isn't over just yet.

As such, it isn't just the impact from the Russia-Ukraine war that Europe needs to be wary about but also a slowdown in China. This article was written by Justin Low at www.forexlive.com.
