Risk markets recover mildly today after yesterday's sharp decline. DOW future is currently up over 500 pts ahead of open, but well short of yesterday's -1800pts decline. Yen and Swiss Franc turn softer today, followed by Dollar, while commodity currencies recover. For the week, though, Yen and Swiss Franc remain the strongest ones while Aussie continues to lead other commodity currencies as the worst performing. Trading might turn subdue as investors will take the weekend to see how close the second wave of coronavirus pandemic is. Technically, 1.1241 minor support in EUR/USD would be a focus before close. Break would indicate short term toping and could help Dollar gain some more ground elsewhere. Gold is also recovering after brief retreat and focus is on 1745.14 resistance. Break will further affirm the case of up trend resumption and target a test on 1765.25 high. In Europe, currently, FTSE is up 0.97%. DAX is up 0.72%. CAC is up 1.76%. German 10-year yield is down -0.0155 at -0.426. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei dropped -0.75%. Hong Kong HSI dropped -0.73%. China Shanghai SSE dropped -0.04%. Singapore Strait Times dropped -0.72%. Japan 10-year JGB yield rose 0.0109 to 0.016. |
