Fundamental view
The preliminary value of the compound index of economic sentiment (ESI) for the Euro zone probably worsened to a reading of -7.5 during the current month from -7.4 in June. This survey precedes the final reading by two weeks. A larger than projected improvement in the index would provide support to the single currency.
The European Commission is due to publish an official report at 14:00 GMT.
