The forex markets are rather mixed today. Dollar suffered very brief selling after CPI miss. But the greenback quickly regains footing as the readings are not bad enough to push Fed for a cut. For now, Sterling is the strongest one for today, followed by Yen and then Dollar. Swiss Franc is the weakest, followed by Aussie and then Kiwi. There is no clear theme for the moment. Technically, EUR/USD's failure to take out 1.1347 temporary top suggests more consolidative trading could be seen for now. Though, further rise is expected with 1.1251 minor support holds. Also, near term outlook in USD/CHF, USD/JPY and USD/CAD remains bearish with 1.0008, 109.02 and 1.3363 resistance levels intact respectively. MO re downside remains in favor in Dollar, except versus Aussie. In Europe, currently, FTSE is down -0.70%. DAX is down -0.37%. CAC is down -0.66%. German 10-year yield is down -0.0007 at -0.231. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei dropped -0.35%. Hong Kong HSI dropped -1.73%. China Shanghai SSE dropped -0.56%. Singapore Strait Times dropped -0.06%. Japan 10-year JGB yield dropped -0.0006 to -0.111. |
