Global stock markets are generally under pressure today. There is some lift from a WSJ report that US and China are laying the ground work for a delay in December 15 tranche of tariffs But the recovery in sentiment is so far limited. In the currency markets, Australian and New Zealand Dollars are so far the weakest one, together with Japanese Yen. Sterling and Swiss Franc are the strongest one. Overall picture could have a big change if more news regarding US-China trade negotiations surface. Technically, AUD/USD's break of 0.6813 minor support argues that rebound from 0.6754 has completed at 0.6862. Deeper fall is now in favor to retest 0.6754 support first. The development put EUR/AUD's focus back to 1.6323 resistance. Break there will resume the rebound from 1.5976. That would also add to sign of Aussie weakness. EUR/CHF's fall from 1.0921 suggests resumption of fall from 1.1027 to 1.0863 support. USD/CHF is now pressing 0.9855 temporary low. Break will put 0.9841 key near term support in focus. In Europe, FTSE is down -0.53%. DAX is down -0.63%. CAC is down -0.13%. Germany 10-year yield is up 0.005 at -0.300. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei dropped -0.09%. Hong Kong HSI dropped -0.22%. China Shanghai SSE rose 0.10%. Singapore Strait Times dropped -0.53%. Japan 10-year JGB yield dropped -0.0159 to -0.021. |
