Markets continue to stay in risk on mode today, with US futures point to more record highs. There is some lift by news that China will halve tariffs on some US imports. Also coronavirus continues to be off investors' mind. In the currency markets, Australian Dollar is the strongest one for today, followed by Euro and then Dollar. Sterling is the weakest, followed by Canadian. For the week, commodity currency are the strongest, as led by Aussie. Sterling is the weakest, followed by Yen and Franc. Technically, EUR/USD stabilizes just ahead of 1.0992 support. But recovery so far is very weak and further fall is in favor. Break of 1.0992 will reaffirm the case that corrective rise from 1.0879 has completed with three waves up from 1.1239. Retest of 1.0879 low should be seen next. On the other hand, EUR/JPY's recovery seems to be losing some momentum ahead of 121.26 minor resistance. Rejection of this resistance will maintain near term bearishness for extending the fall from 122.87 through 119.77 ahead. In Europe, FTSE is currently up 0.37%. DAX is up 0.64%. CAC is up 0.75%. German 10-year yield is up 0.0109 at -0.346. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei rose 2.38%. Hong Kong HSI is up 2.64%. China Shanghai SSE is up 1.72%. Singapore Strait Times is up 0.98%. Japan 10-year JGB yield rose 0.0177 to -0.015. |
