Markit said;

Upward price pressures abated slightly in December, with rates of increase in input costs and output charges both easing for the first time in five months. The pace of inflation signalled for each price measure remained strong relative to their long-run trends, however, and among the steepest seen over the past six-and-a-half years.

EURUSD doing nothing at 1.2029.
