Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 29 2013 Japan's PM Abe rethinks sales tax hike; inflation case strengthens? Japan's most significant fiscal reform in years, that is, a planned hike from 5% to 8% in sales tax by April 2014, faces the prospects of being delayed or watered down as concerns mount the tax increase may do more harm than good to the delicate economic recovery in the country. According to a report from Reuters earlier on Monday: "PM Abe says he will decide in the autumn whether to proceed with the first part of the two-stage plan after gauging the state of the economic recovery, especially GDP data that is due on Sept 9." https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/29072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : N/A | Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda Speech 2013-07-29 08:30 GMT | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 26 2013 What does Japan CPI rise mean for the BoJ? In a clear sign of temporary victory by 'Abenomics' radical policies, Japan printed the sharpest rise in core inflation in almost 5 years, with the read out at +0.4% y/y vs 0.3% exp. The rest of indicators were also encouraging. ne of the top priorities by Japan is to end a 15-year deflation cycle, so that the country can start to develop a self-sustaining recovery. In large part, this is the main reason behind the radical ultra-loose monetary policy being currently deployed by the BoJ, which has committed to double the amount the central bank purchases in Japanese government debt. The country will continue to actively assess how these increases in price pressure - still minimal - are having an impact on the mindset of the population, potentially leading to support more credit, spending and rise in salaries. However, as IFR Markets Editor Amanda Tan notes, "a planned sales tax hike in April next year - from 5% to 8% - poses a downside risk to spending & sentiment, particularly if wages don't start to rise." https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/26072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-26 06:00 GMT | Germany.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 25 2013 Greece one step away from bailout payment According to the German finance ministry, Greece has completed 21 out of the 22 measures required by the international lenders in exchange for the next bailout payment. The country still has to implement the “mobility scheme” which involves a transfer or dismissal of 12,500 public workers within a year. The measure is expected to be fulfilled until tomorrow. Ryan Littlestone from ForexLive believes that the Troika will finally approve the next bailout payment for Greece, despite the impediments: “Seeing as they've never backed down from hand over cash to Greece there's little chance of this episode failing.” https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/25072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-25 08:30 GMT | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 24 2013 China sets 7% growth as bottom line, eyes fresh stimulus Chinese Premier Li Keqiang provided a juicy headline during Tuesday, suggesting the country may have to rethink its 'non-stimulatory' monetary policies should the economic growth fall below 7%, according to local media reports. Mr Li said that 7% is seen as the 'bottom line', and if target not met, there will be other options on the table as the government cannot afford the growth rate to deteriorate further, Xinhua News Agency reported. According to Beijing News, Mr. Li added: "As long as the economic growth rate, employment and other indicators don't slip below our lower limit and inflation doesn't exceed our upper limit we'll focus on restructuring and pushing reforms." As Ambrose Evans-Pritchard from the Telegraph notes: "Mr Li's comments suggest a major shift in policy by Beijing, which has deliberately engineered a slow-down over recent months by squeezing credit. The government has been rattled by upheavals in the interbank market and has begun to heed warnings that the crackdown has gone too far." https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/24072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-24 07:58 GMT | EMU.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 23 2013 Bank of Japan stands ready to inject further stimulus The Bank of Japan is prepared to provide further easing to the economy should signs fail to emerge about an economic recovery, including an inflation mandate of 2% in the short-run. According to BoJ board member Takehiro Sato, more stimulus is a real possibility if the economy's recovery is threatened, naming a few risks such as slower-than-expected growth in China. "A high degree of uncertainty remains concerning the global economy, and I see risks to the economic outlook as somewhat tilted to the downside," Sato said. "The BOJ does not exclude the implementation of additional measures and will not hesitate to fine-tune its policies flexibly when unexpected tail risks materialise," Sato added in a speech to business leaders in Fukushima, northeastern Japan. Sato also said the 2% inflation should be seen as a flexible target, subject to change in the 2-year projections, a timeframe which had been repeatedly mentioned by BOJ governor Haruhiko Kuroda in past meetings. "If the inflation rate is projected to stabilise within a certain range, with the median being 2 per cent price growth, the main objective of the bank's policy will have been fulfilled," Sato said. Mr Sato, an economist who joined the BOJ board last year, was nonetheless more optimistic about japan’s economy from a year earlier, saying a recovery was "coming into view", presenting a "window of opportunity" to overcome deflation. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/23072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-23 08:30 GMT | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 22 2013 Portugal's president backs coalition government Portugal president Aníbal Cavaco Silva on Sunday supported the current coalition government, saying they should stay till end of the term, ending weeks of political crisis in the country, which had led international actors to even threaten the country's €78 billion international bailout. "As the national salvation compromise was impossible to achieve, I consider that the best alternative solution is for the present government to remain in its functions, with reinforced guarantees of cohesion and solidity of the coalition, until the end of its term (in 2015)" Mr. Cavaco said. Further headlines were provided by Bloomberg, with Cavaco saying he "laments talks on ‘National salvation’ agreement failed to produce results", and that "agreement will eventually be imposed by reality in future."

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 19 2013 Bernanke: Too early to say when tapering will start Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke testified before the Congress for a second day on Thursday. While the introductory statement remained unchanged, investors didn't get new insights from the Q&A session before the Senate Banking Committee. When asked about the time the Fed will scale back its monthly bond-buying programme, he said "it's way too early to make any judgment" as the Fed wants to see sustainable improvement in labor markets. Bernanke also said he has broad support for his policy outlook through the Fed leadership. "We've not changed policy. We are not talking about tightening monetary policy", Bernanke said. He added that none of what the Fed has communicated about winding down its bond purchases implies tighter policy in the foreseeable future. Among other remarks, Bernanke said he doesn't see risks to financial stability from student debt, though he said it could have negative economic consequences in the long-term. "It is not particularly likely to cause any sharp instability of the sort we saw in the last few years", Bernanke said Thursday. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/19072013 FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 24h | All.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 16 2013 Dovish ECB, soft US retail sales balance each other out. Waiting on Bernanke – again! Dovish talk from the ECB undermined the Euro before the softer than expected US Retail Sales turned things around, sending the US dollar slightly lower. Markets are likely to be on hold ahead of Bernanke’s testimony to Congress although equities and commodities both looks solid in the short term. A mix of data out of the EU and the US could make it a bit choppy later in the day. Before then, the RBA Minutes will be Asia’s focus. The Euro has had a choppy but mostly uninteresting session, hanging close to 1.3000 as the northern hemisphere summer doldrums look to be well upon us. Early dovish comments from the ECB’s Hansson, indicating that there is room to cut rates further and that negative interest rates should not be ruled out helped push the Euro lower early in the session, before a bit of a turnaround following the softer than expected US retail Sales, that saw the dollar come under some pressure of its own. Fitch downgraded the EFSF – European Financial Stability Facility- to AA+ from AAA, which, following on from the recent France downgrade, had precisely no effect on the Euro at all. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/16072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : N/A | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 15 2013 Fitch downgrades France to AA+ from AAA Fitch Ratings has downgraded France to AA+ from AAA on Friday, keeping a stable outlook on the country's debt. Fitch, which joins S&P and Moody's in removing the country's AAA rating, cited the high level of the French government indebtedness as one of the main reasons of the downgrade. Fitch expects France's general government debt to peak at 96% of GDP in 2014 and decline only gradually over the long term, remaining at 92% in 2017. "The only 'AAA' country with a higher debt ratio is the U.S. (AAA/negative), which has exceptional financing flexibility and debt tolerance afforded by the preeminent global reserve currency status of the U.S. dollar," Fitch said in a statement. Standard & Poor's has affirmed on Friday Germany's top triple-A sovereign credit rating, with a stable outlook. The rating agency justified its decision saying that “Germany has a highly diversified and competitive economy with a demonstrated ability to absorb large economic and financial shocks.” As far as the outlook on the long-term rating is concerned, S&P's decision to keep it 'stable' reflects their view that: “Germany's public finances and strong external balance sheet will continue to withstand potential financial and economic shocks.” https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/15072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-15 07:15 GMT | Switzerland.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 12 2013 ECB Monthly Report: Interest rates could be reduced further The ECB signalized in its July Monthly Report that interest rates could be reduced further, should the price stability outlook warrant it. The recently introduced forward guidance was also included: “The Governing Council expects the key ECB interest rates to remain at present or lower levels for an extended period of time.” There was also some clarification of its time horizon: “The extended period of time over which the Governing Council currently expects the key ECB interest rates to remain at present or lower levels is a flexible horizon which does not pre-specify an end-date but is conditional on the Governing Council’s assessment of the economic fundamentals that determine underlying inflation." Furthermore, the Council pointed to recent improvements in Eurozone sentiment indicators which suggest a gradual recovery of the economy later this year and in 2014. To support it, the ECB is prepared to maintain the accomodative monetary policy for as long as necessary. The accomodative policy should prop up domestic demand while the recovery in global demand should boost export growth in the area. Additionally, the Governing Council suggested that “the overall improvements in financial markets seen since last summer should work their way through to the real economy, as should the progress made in fiscal consolidation.” https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/12072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-12 09:00 GMT | EMU.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 10 2013 S&P downgrades Italy to BBB, outlook negative Ratings Agency Standard & Poor's decided to downgrade Italy on Tuesday, cutting the rating to BBB from BBB+. According to S&P, this action reflects their view of the effects of further weakening growth on Italy's economic structure and resilience, and its impaired monetary transmission mechanism. S&P also left their outlook at negative, meaning there is at least one-in-three chance that the rating could be lowered again in 2013 or 2014. The highlights today will be the FOMC Minutes and Bernanke’s Speech and until then I don’t see an awful lot to move things around. The 4 hour charts are showing some minor bullish divergence and we could see the odd bounce but the dailies continue to point lower and I suspect that the low 1.2700 area will soon be tested. In the meantime leave room for bounces as the 4 hour charts unwind. We will be adding to our shorts if we see a bounce into the 1.2850/1.2900 in the coming session.

roika approves next disbursment to Greece Troika officials struck a deal with Greece this Monday, allowing the debt-laden country to receive its next tranche of funds, totalling The money, totaling 6.8bn euros ($8.7bn). The troika of the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will be responsible to make the funds available end of the month. Eurozone finance ministers indicated earlier today that 2.5bn euros would come from the eurozone rescue fund and 1.5bn euros, while the European Central Bank will contribute with another 1.5bn euros. It is thought that an additional 500m euros from both the EZ rescue fund and the ECB will be transferred in October. The IMF will add the remaining 1.8bn euros. The loans are subject to Greece showing a committal approach towards the country's fiscal path, with the Troika demanding further cuts and a faster implementation of its reform programme, one that has brought the country to its knees. Despite so, the Troika continues to underline the slow progress seen so far, as the country continues to struggle through an era of depression. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/09072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 24h | EcoFin Meeting 2013-07-09 08:30 GMT | UK.

ECB members had heated clash over last rate decision ECB Governing Council members had a confrontational approach over interest rates at their latest board meeting on Thursday, according to German weekly Der Spiegel, citing no sources, the MNI newswire reports. Der Spiegel claims to have obtained insights over the dovish views from ECB chief economist Peter Praet, who proposed to cut the benchmark interest rate by 25 bp in the last meeting, an action that ECB President Mario Draghi would have supported. However, as MNI reports, "seven board members, mainly from northern European member states, were arguing sharply against a rate cut last week, the magazine reported." Der Spiegel reports German Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann, Dutch central bank governor Klaas Knot as well as ECB Executive Board member Joerg Asmussen, as the most notoriously opposed to it. As is well known, the final decision taken by the board was to unanimously keep the benchmark rate unchanged at 0.5% while providing forward guidance on low rates. Draghi's said that "broad-based weakness in the real economy and subdued monetary dynamics" will keep rates at present or lower levels for an extended period of time. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/08072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 24h | All.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 05 2013 EUR and GBP Crushed by ECB and BoE Big moves are happening in the FX market yesterday. The euro and British pound dropped to 5 week lows against the U.S. dollar, taking out key levels in the process. The absence of U.S. traders most likely compounded the volatility in currencies. The European Central Bank and the Bank of England left monetary policy unchanged but Mario Draghi and Mark Carney made it clear that both central banks have a bias to ease. The dovish comments from European central bankers were motivated by the recent volatility in interest rates and a desire to set themselves apart from the Federal Reserve who is on a path to reduce stimulus. The ECB and the BoE wants everyone to know that they are still prepared to increase stimulus if the volatility in the bond markets persist or their economies weaken. In the Eurozone in particular, the EUR/USD dropped through 1.30 and 1.29. The currency started to fall as soon as Draghi said that policy will remains accommodative as long as needed, there are downside risks to their economic outlook and rates will stay low for an extended period of time. The sell-off gained momentum when the central bank took the unprecedented step of forward guidance. The ECB said there is no exit in sight, they are keeping rates low for an extended period of time, their decision will be data dependent and they are keeping an open mind on negative deposit rates. Draghi also reminded everyone that the central bank is "technically ready" for negative rates. They had an extensive discussion about the possibility of a rate cut and unanimously decided that the guidance was needed which included saying that 50bp is not the lower bound. The central bank is screaming their bias to ease from the top of the mountain - they don't want to leave any room for ambiguity because the risk could be a further rise in yields. Having dropped below 1.29, the next support for the EUR/USD should be at 1.28. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/05072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-05 10:00 GMT | Germany.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 04 2013 EUR - Beware of the ECB Since the last ECB meeting, we have seen more improvements than deterioration in the Eurozone economy. In Germany specifically, consumer spending has been healthy, unemployment rolls have declined, leading to an improvement in business and investor confidence. However the strength was not without areas of weakness. Businesses and investors grew more optimistic about future economic activity but more grim about current activity. Considering that the current performance of the economy is what really matters, the ECB may look beyond everyone's hope for improvement. Also stronger service sector activity in the region's largest economy was offset by a deeper contraction in manufacturing. So as you can see the recovery in the Eurozone is uneven and when combined with a 5% sell-off in the DAX, since the last meeting the ECB has very little to be optimistic about. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/04072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-04 08:00 GMT | EMU.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 03 2013 U.S. Dollar Faces its First Test With 2 more days to go before the pivotal U.S. non-farm payrolls report, the dollar extended its gains against all of the major currencies. Milestones were reached in some pairs while others broke key levels. The sustainability of the dollar's rally has been nothing short of impressive but it should not surprise investors since the strongest moves in the FX market are the ones supported by fundamental drivers. In this case the Federal Reserve is getting ready to reduce the amount of stimulus that it provides to the economy and investors are just looking for economic data to confirm that the economy is ready for tapering. The dollar faces its first test today with a number of U.S. economic reports on the calendar that will help shape expectations for Friday's release. The day starts off with a layoff report from Challenger Grey & Christmas that will be followed by the ADP Employment Change, jobless claims and most importantly, the ISM non-manufacturing index. Earlier this week we learned that the manufacturing sector lost jobs for the first time since 2009 and now the question is whether the service sector suffered the same fate. We don't think that it did because otherwise the Fed would not have lowered its unemployment rate forecasts but there's always the risk the data could surprise to the downside. Layoffs are expected to decline and most likely ADP will report an increase in U.S. payrolls. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/03072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-03 08:28 GMT | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 02 2013 AUD/USD hits lowest at 0.9158 as RBA retains dovish tone AUD/USD has been extending its decline post the RBA rate decision, as traders disccount further rate cuts by the central bank going forward. Amid expectations that the rate would be on hold, all the focus was on the wording used by the RBA. Unfortunately for the anxious bulls, there was no surprise on the dovish tone either, with the RBA repeating the old line "the inflation outlook, as currently assessed, may provide some scope for further easing, should that be required to support demand." What is worse, the RBA stated "The Australian dollar has depreciated by around 10 per cent since early April, although it remains at a high level", which was a hint that despite the dramatic fall, the currency is still not low enough, thus market is now pricing the fact that a lower AUD may not be an impediment to reduce rates further should that be necessary. The lowest level so far has been 0.9156, an area that converges with the sequence of lows seen on July 1 and June 24 on the hourly chart. The level is also the 61.8% fib retrac from the 0.9110 to 0.9250 relief rally. It appears as though some bids are emerging now from lows, with the rate up at 0.9170. On the upside, some offers may be clustered at 0.9175 - lows through last US session - ahead of 0.92 round number and 0.9250 - twin top today. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/02072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-02 08:30 GMT | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jun 28 2013 Should the Dollar be Worried about Fed Comments? Fed Presidents Dudley, Powell and Lockhart spoke yesterday and with the first 2 being voting members of the FOMC this year, its no surprise that their comments triggered intraday volatility in the dollar. All 3 Fed Presidents said that it may be appropriate for the central bank to taper asset purchases in 2013 and end QE buying in mid-2014 but the markets chose to hone in on Dudley's comment that QE depends on the economic outlook and not the calendar and could be prolonged if the economy misses their forecasts. There's no question that the recent rise in U.S. yields has irritated central bankers but the fact Dudley still repeated Bernanke's timing after qualifying the conditions for QE means that this uber dove is most likely onboard with the idea of reducing asset purchases. Fed President Powell's stance was similar - while he sees the central bank scaling back purchases this year, he said it is data and not date dependent. Both Dudley and Lockhart didn't see Bernanke's press conference last week as a strong signal of Fed policy or a major shift but rather a "soft notion" of when QE could end. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/28062013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-06-28 06:00 GMT | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jun 27 2013 EU FinMin reach deal on bank resolution rules EU Finance Ministers reached, at the second attempt, an agreement on the new policy to manage restructuring and liquidation of banks. The deal is part of efforts to establish a banking union, which has as ultimate objective to break the link between bank debt and sovereign debt. The EcoFin meeting, celebrated ahead of Thursday's EU Summit, agreed what types of creditors must take losses in future banking crises, according to diplomatic sources. The draft document ensures that depositors with savings under €100,000 will be protected from any loss. The agreement has to be now ratified by the heads of state and government at the summit. German unemployment and Eurozone confidence numbers are also scheduled for release today and the outcome of these reports will impact the market's expectations for ECB policy and in turn the euro. If the data is good, then the central bank's threat to increase stimulus will fall on deaf ears. Just this morning ECB President Draghi reminded everyone that the central bank stands ready to act if necessary. Unfortunately based on the latest PMI numbers, labor market conditions most likely deteriorated in the month of June and if the data is weak, confirming that ECB policy will trail far behind the Fed, the euro could find itself trading closer to 1.29. In terms of confidence, it will be tough call since there has been both strength and weakness in the latest IFO and ZEW surveys. These numbers shouldn't be as important as German unemployment. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/27062013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-06-27 07:55 GMT | Germany.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jun 26 2013 Pause Before Another Big Move? Based on the price action over the past 48 hours in the forex market, volatility has declined as traders and investors wait for a fresh catalyst to drive the dollar higher. Better than expected U.S. economic data helped the greenback hold onto its gains against most of the major currencies but after such an extensive rally, the market is waiting for some confirmation that the Federal Reserve is on track to taper this year and won't do too much damage on the U.S. economy. The latest economic reports suggests that the economy may be able handle less stimulus but that is far from certain. As we said on Monday, the key is whether the other FOMC members are onboard with the idea. Right now, currency traders are in wait and see mode as they look forward to the next big catalyst - which could come from the speeches by Fed officials. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/26062013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-06-26 06:00 GMT | Germany.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jun 25 2013 Will Fed Speeches Halt the Dollar Rally? Based on the sell-off in global equities and rise in bond yields around the world, deleveraging in the financial markets intensified. However in the forex market, the U.S. dollar appears to have stabilized. Early losses for many major currencies against the dollar were recovered by the end of the day. In fact, the AUD/USD even ended the North American trading session in positive territory. Does this mean that the dollar rally has peaked? No. There were no fundamental drivers behind the reversal in the greenback outside of exhaustion. U.S. stocks continued to decline, extending losses that began at the end of May. While the S&P 500 is still up more than 11% year to date, it lost 6% of its value since setting a record high of 1,669.16 on May 21st. With 1,500 in sight more losses are likely for the S&P 500 and additional weakness in equities is a reflection of risk aversion, which could lead to further strength for the greenback. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/25062013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-06-25 08:30 GMT | UK.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jun 21 2013 EU Fin Min struck deal on bank bailouts Eurozone ministers struck a deal over the origin of funds for bank bailouts from now on. While the local government will contribute 20% of the new capital, the ESM (European Stability Mechanism) bailout fund will become the major contributor with an 80%, according to an official cited by Reuters. Moreover, EU finance ministers made an agreement for the ESM to be used as an investment vehicle for banks under stress, with each being assessed individually to become eligible to the aid, Reuters reported. With regards to Cyprus, EU Finance Ministers were clear that Cyprus must live up to its word by fulfilling its financial obligations. Furthermore, President of the Eurogroup Dijsselbloem was quoted on a headline saying "Implementation of agreed Cypriot baliout program is indispensible", noting that implementation is key for the Bank of Cyrus, also adding that there is likely to be a limit of 60bn euro on direct bank recap fund, although this can be reviewed. The EUR/USD suffered more losses today, declining another 75 pips and closing at 1.3218. However, it should be noted the pair did trade as low as 1.3160 at one point, but was able to recover a decent portion of its losses before the end of the day. Analysts were discussing the release of the most recent EU PMI figures, which hit the tape during the previous European session. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/21062013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 24h | EMU.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jun 20 2013 Bernanke: The Fed is ready to start tapering Following the Fed decision to hold rates and the optimistic FOMC economic projections, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke indicated that the Fed are ready to start tapering QE. Bernanke began by highlighting the optimistic growth forecasts for 2013 and 2014, making reference to the hotly anticipated exit strategy, commenting, on “setting fed funds target over medium term and continuing purchases of MBS”. Further, he added that an improvement in the unemployment rate to 6.5% should not be considered to be a trigger for an immediate rate hike. He added that he is personally expecting this to occur during 2015. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/20062013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-06-20 07:30 GMT | Switzerland.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jun 19 2013 EUR - Lifted by Stronger Investor Confidence The euro traded higher against all of the major currencies today thanks to the improvement in Eurozone and German investor sentiment. The Eurozone ZEW survey rose to 30.6 from 27.6 and while investors grew less optimistic about current conditions in Germany, their confidence in future conditions improved with the expectations component of the German ZEW rising to 38.5 from 36.4. With the European Central Bank taking additional steps to stimulate the economy, this data indicates that investors are looking for a stronger recovery. In a farewell conference for Bank of Israel Governor Stanley Fischer today, European Central Bank President Mario Draghi talked about ECB monetary policy. He said the central bank would consider non-standard measures including the possibility of negative deposit rates. Draghi said, "We will look with an open mind at these measures that are especially effective in our institutional setup and that fall within our mandate." Yet he warned that these non-standard measures could also lead to unintentional consequences. Parts of the Eurozone have been unresponsive to monetary policy and Draghi has set to regain its steering capacity. He pointed out that the introduction of non-standard policy measures along with standard measures helped prevent the materialization of deflation risk. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/19062013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-06-19 08:30 GMT | UK.
