Sterling remains generally weaker today, on Brexit concerns. But Swiss Franc is apparently worse for now, dropping through a near term support level against the greenback. On the other hand, Yen and Dollar stay firm in mixed Asian markets. Yen is not too troubled by data that showed deeper than estimated economic contraction in Q2. Instead, eyes are on who the next Japanese Prime Minister would be. Australian Dollar is attempting a rebound too but upside is capped by business conditions data. Technically, USD/CHF's break of 0.9161 resistance suggests short term bottoming at 0.8998. The pair should be on track for a stronger rebound. But we'd still need to see more breakthrough in Dollar pairs to confirm the underlying momentum in the greenback. The levels to watch include 1.1762 support in EUR/USD, 1.3053 support in GBP/USD. In Asia, currently, Nikkei is up 0.51%. Hong Kong HSI is down -0.57%. China Shanghai SSE is down -0.34%> Singapore Strait Times is up 0.30%. Japan 10-year JGB yield is down -0.00-37 at 0.038. |
