Dollar is relatively directionless in after mixed job data. The headline number is a slight miss and wage growth disappoints. Yet, unemployment rate dropped to lowest level since 1969. For today, Sterling is the weakest one as it looks like EU is not so happy with UK's new Brexit plan. Yen is the second weakest, followed by Dollar. Swiss Franc, on the other hand, is the strongest, followed by New Zealand and then Canadian Dollar. Technically, USD/CHF dips sharply today but stays well above 0.9843 support further rise is till expected. EUR/USD's recovery from 1.0879 appears to be losing some upside momentum. USD/JPY is staging a strong recovery and break of 107.39 minor resistance will turn focus back to 108.47 resistance. In Europe, currently, FTSE is up 0.55%. DAX is up 0.28%. CAC is up 0.43%. German 10-year yield is up 0.009 at -0.579. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei rose 0.32%. Hong Kong HSI dropped -1.11%. Singapore Strait Times dropped -0.31%. Japan 10-year JGB yield dropped -0.0217 to -0.211. |
