WARSAW, Dec 22 (Reuters) - The Czech crown was stable on Friday, a day after Czech rate-setters kicked off policy easing, while other central European currencies were a touch weaker in slow pre-holiday trading.
The Czech National Bank (CNB) cut its main repo rate by 25 basis points (bps) to 6.75%, the first reduction in more than three years amid slowing inflation and a sagging economy.
The Czech crown traded at 24.55 per euro by 1047 GMT.
The Hungarian forint was 0.3% lower at 382.40 after the Hungarian central bank also cut rates earlier this week, when it eased to 385.65 on Wednesday.
"The forint has positively corrected, a cautious forint strengthening continued yesterday, and an important support was briefly broken at 382.50," brokerage Equilor said in a note.
"The next support level would be the 50-day moving average at 380.65 to the euro."
The Polish zloty was a touch down at 4.33 per euro with no local events planned. Investors will be watching U.S. inflation data later in the day.
"We expect the EUR/PLN to stabilise around 4.33, especially considering lower investor activity in the pre-Christmas period," Bank Millennium analysts wrote in a report.
Markets in the region will be closed on Monday and Tuesday for Christmas.
