Aussie lower on budget headlines
A reality check for Australia today as budget numbers are revised. Previously the government were predicting a budget surplus for this year, but the continued strength of the Aussie, together with the reversal in commodity prices have reminded the Australian government that nothing lasts forever and it's dangerous to ever assume so. Still, all things are relative and the budget and growth situation in Australia is a far cry from what we are seeing in most other major economies and a world away from the eurozone periphery.Leer más »

No specific factors behind the move beyond order being triggered in a light start of the week session.Leer más »

Green light for the yen
The stance of G7 leaders on the yen and currencies in general remained unchanged at their meeting over the weekend. As such, the yen touched above the 102 level on USDJPY in Asia trade before pulling back to 102.60. Whilst there may be bigger concerns from Japan's major Asian trading partners (such a South Korea), G7 leaders appear content with the weaker yen, so long as policies do not specifically target exchanges rates.Leer más »

UK policy unchanged, along with sterling
GBPUSD little changed as Bank of England keeps asset purchases and rates unchanged, as expected. GBPUSD at 1.5580 and EURGBP 0.84390. Recent data has been a little better than expected, undermining the arguments of the 3 members that have voted for more quantitative easing in the February to April meetings. We have to wait for the minutes later this month to see if they changed their vote.Leer más »

Down under moves
The main mover overnight was the kiwi, with comments by the central bank governor Wheeler suggesting that the RBNZ were becoming more concerned with the strength of the currency. We pointed out yesterday the fact that AUDNZD had been moving lower for the previous 7 weeks and this was likely to be cause for concern for the central bank. Back in February, Wheeler pointed out that the kiwi was not to be considered a one-way bet and whilst initially this did turn the currency around, it currently stands around 1% firmer vs. the levels prevailing at this time.Leer más »
