> The euro weakened broadly, with EUR/USD falling to 1.1150 as investors sought safe-haven currencies and euro-area retail sales disappointed. September retail sales fell 0.7% month on month, versus a 0.1% decline expected, while annual growth slowed to 0.4%; German industrial output rose more than expected.

## Why it matters

The retail-sales weakness signals softer household demand and weighs on the euro, while a stronger dollar can increase the local-currency cost of imported feed ingredients. These forces point to further downside pressure on EUR/USD.
