The financial markets didn't start the second quarter with a bang even though coronavirus pandemic carried on. Globally, confirmed cases surged through 1.1m level but that's now more of an indication of the speed of tests. Death toll, on the other hand, remains worrying as it broke 60k handle without sign of slowing down. Markets turned into mild risk averse mode, but downside pressure was somewhat eased by rebound in oil price. Dollar rode on risk aversion and ended the week as the strongest one, followed by Yen. USD/JPY's recovery ahead of 106.75 near term support suggests that Dollar is having an upper hand, for now. New Zealand Dollar ended as the weakest one, followed by Euro and then Aussie. |
