| Posted: Now that the month-end, quarter-end, year-end fixing is out of the way, markets are coming back to earth. EUR/USD has fallen back to the high 1.3340s after a spike to 1.3425 around the time of the 16:00 GMT fix. USD/JPY is up to the low 81.20s after a brief probe below the ... |
| The surprise for 2011? A lower-than-expected US deficit and a long-term budget fix Posted: My call for 2011 is that the US deficit will come in significantly below projections of roughly $1.3 trln and it will improve even further in 2012. There are two reasons why I expect improvement. First, the 112th Congress will be radically different than the profligate 111th Congress it replaces (Cash ... |
| Posted: It's been such a rough day for the dollar that even the CAD moved today... |
| Just your garden-variety 70 pip post-fixing rebound Posted: It's a little thin out there, apparently. USD/CHF slipped as low as 0.9301 during the 16:00 GMT fixing only to ramp as high as 0.9371 12 minutes later... Don't say you weren't warned... |
| Be thankful you’re not a bank trader… Posted: ...who can't find anyone to take the other side of his order to buy umpteen EUR/USD at the upcoming 16:00 GMT fixing... Looks to me it is all equity driven month-end demand at work here... EUR/USD is up to 1.3420, AUD to 1.0220, USD/JPY to 81.00... On CNBC, they are showing New Years ... |
| Whoomp, there it is: Aud breaks 1.0200 Posted: AUD/USD has taken out whatever barriers and stops were in the 1.0200 area and has traded up to 1.0220. |
| USD/JPY continues its year-end grind Posted: Year-end markets can become very one-sided and that clearly has been the case in USD/JPY. Book squaring by Japanese exporters for quarter-end and dollar-negative fixing flows are keeping the greenback weighed down. We trade now at 81.16, the lowest level since September 11. Looking into early 2011, my gut tells me that ... |
| FOMC to have more hawkish membership in 2011 Posted: The regional Fed presidents are all members of the Federal Open Market Committee, the rate-setting body of the Federal Reserve Board. Not all members have a vote every year, however. Only the president of the New York Fed has a permanent vote and also serves as the Vice Chair of ... |
| Posted: Must be Gerry's bonus payment being transacted by our bank...Cable has popped up to 1.5585 from the 1.5545 area on very thin volume... |
| Good month for US stocks bad for USD at month-end Posted: Passive investors like overseas index funds often rebalance portfolios at the end of each month. For instance, this month, the S&P 500, the most indexed-to index in the world is up approximately 6.5%. That makes the fund holding the shares longer 6.5% more dollars than at the beginning of the ... |
| Posted: ...but it must happen enough to keep the dream alive. To what dream to I refer? The dream of your favorite asset bubble suddenly imploding, justifying your stubborn bucking of a well-defined trend. As I've said time and time again, identifying bubbles is easy, timing their demise extremely difficult (and usually unprofitable).Just ... |
| Posted: First Chicago, now the Big Apple PMI rises... The NY ISM index rose to 495.7 from 485.7 in November, a 2% rise. |
| US DATA: Dec ISM-NY Current Business Conditions rose. Posted: US DATA: Dec ISM-NY Current Business Conditions index rose to 70.0 vs 65.6 in Nov. Future optimism also reached a seven-month high. |
| Even central banks have a P&L… Posted: Maybe the push up in EUR/USD in recent days is so central bank buyers of the single currency can mark their books for the year in a somewhat may favorable light... EUR/USD is consolidating gains in the 1.3375 area. |
