Sterling tumbles broadly today, appeared to be weighed down by UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson's plan to double down on public investments. The selloff is particularly apparent against Euro, as the latter was lifted mildly by improvements in Eurozone confidence indicators, and better than expected Germany CPI. The developments also took Swiss Franc higher. On the other hand, Yen and Dollar are following the Pound as next weakest. Technically, EUR/GBP is showing clear upside acceleration now. Sustained break of 0.9182 fibonacci level could pave the way back to 0.9499 high. GBP/CHF is on track to corresponding fibonacci support at 1.1544. Sustained break will pave the way to retest 1.1102 low. Also, note that EUR/USD rebounds well ahead of 1.1168 support and focus is back on 1.1348 resistance. Break will likely extend recent rally through 1.1422 high. Such development could trigger more broad based rally in Euro elsewhere. In Europe, currently, FTSE is up 0.60%. DAX is up 0.35%. CAC is up 0.28%. Germany 10-year yield is up 0.0214 at -0.459. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei dropped -2.30%. Hong Kong HSI dropped -1.01%. China Shanghai SSE dropped -0.61%. Singapore Strait Times dropped -1.17%. Japan 10-year JGB yield rose 0.0053 to 0.016. |
