US stocks staged a massive rebound overnight, with DOW closed up over 5%. But reactions in other markets are muted. Strength in Asian markets is very limited even though major indices are in black. Gold is gyrating in tight range around 1600 handle. WTI crude oil struggles to gain momentum above 48. In the currency markets, Australian Dollar is mixed, shrugging off RBA's expected rate cut. Major pairs and crosses are staying inside Monday's range, with Euro and Swiss Franc staying firmest. Technically, AUD/USD and AUD/JPY are staying in consolidation after RBA's move. Outlook in both pairs remains bearish and we'd expect recovery to be limited below 0.6662 and 72.41 resistance respectively. Down trends are expected to resume sooner or later. 1.1239 resistance in EUR/USD will remain a major focus for the week. Decisive break there will at least confirm medium term bottoming at 1.0777. Near term outlook will be turned bullish for stronger rebound to 1.1456 fibonacci level. In Asia, currently, Nikkei is up 0.16%. Hong Kong HSI is up 0.78%. China Shanghai SSE is up 1.36%. Singapore Strait Times is up 1.03%. 10-year JGB yield is up 0.0304 at -0.106. Overnight, DOW rose 5.09%. S&P 500 rose 4.60%. NASDAQ rose 4.49%. 10-year dropped -0.039 to 1.088, another record low. |
