Sterling's selloff continues today as UK is entering into two crucial days regarding Brexit, and general election cold be called. Euro also follows as the second weakest on ECB easing expectations. On the other hand, Dollar is the strongest one as markets are awaiting more news on US-China trade war, which seems not to be escalating further. Australian Dollar reversed earlier gains after RBA stands pat. Technically, GBP/USD's break of 1.2014 indicates decline resumption for 1.1946 (2016 low). We'd remain cautious on support from there to bring rebound. But sustained break will resume long term down trend too. 0.9157 minor resistance in EUR/GBP and 126.54 support GBP/JPY would be watched to confirm broad based selling in the Pound. In Asia, Nikkei is up 0.11%. Hong Kong HSI is down -0.21%. China Shanghai SSE is down -0.18%. Singapore Strait Times is up 0.12%. Japan 10-year JGB yield is down -0.0047 at -0.268. |
