Market Review- 04/11/2013 21:33GMT

Euro rebound fom 6-week low on short-covering

The single currency finally cut 6 consecutve days of losses and rebounded from a fresh 6-week low on Monday. Earier in Asia, although euro penetrated Friday's low at 1.3478 after meeting renewed selling at 1.3502 and fell to 1.3442 in thin Asia session lunch session after tripping stops below 1.3462, profit-taking together with active short-covering lifted the pair. Euro ratcheted higher in European session on stronger-than-expected Germany's manufacturing PMI and later climbed to a session high at 1.3525 in New York afternoon.

The British pound strengthened on Monday after the release of strong U.K. construction PMI data which showed that activity in the U.K. construction sector expanded at the fastest rate in six years in October continued to support demand for sterling. U.K. construction PMI in October came in at 59.4, stronger than the forecast of 58.7.

Versus Japanese yen, the greenback firmed to intra-day high at 98.85 in quiet Asian trading as financial markets in Japan were closed for a national holiday, however, failure to penetrate last Friday's top at 98.86 prompted long liquidation. Dollar edged lower in European session and later weakened to a session low at 98.57 in New York afternoon.

In other news, the president of St. Louis Federal Reverse James Bullard said 'bond buying is data dependent, policy-makers will look at the evidence at every meeting; labor markets have made substantial progress, but inflation is low; not seen much evidence on inflation heading higher; "what is the hurry" to decide on tapering, would like to see inflation heading to 2%; 'asset bubbles are a serious concern, but not seeing anything of magnitude of housing bubble; Fed does not want to be in position of supporting fiscal recklessness; recent rise in bond yields has eased his concern that bond market showing bubble characteristics.'

Governor of Federal Reserve Jerome H. Powell said 'U.S. monetary policy is likely to remain highly accommodative for some time; timing of when Fed will trim pace of bond buying is necessarily uncertain, depends on evolution of economy; Fed policy makers committed to communicating as clearly as possible about policy aims, intentions.’

Market Review - 05/11/2013 22:13GMT

Euro falls ahead of ECB meeting

The single currency met selling interest at 1.3522 in Asian trading and then dropped to 1.3478 in European morning before rebounding to 1.3511 partly due to EU commission's forecast on euro zone GDP growth. However, euro weakened again on growing speculation that the European Central Bank may signal easier monetary policy or even cut interest rates at its policy meeting on Thursday.

It was also the sharpest rise in activity since May 1997. Later, cable jumped to a session high at 1.6063 in New York morning b4 retreating.

The British pound rose to 1.6097 in Asian trading before retreating to 1.6063. Cable later jumped to an intra-day high at 1.6118 after the release of stronger-than-expected U.K. industrial and manufacturing production before stabilizing in New York session.

The single currency tumbled on Thursday after ECB unexpectedly cut interest rate to 0.25% together with the release of U.S. GDP data which came in stronger than economist's forecast. ECB cut refinancing rate to 0.25% and cut interest rate on marginal lending to 0.75%. U.S. GDP in Q3 came in at 2.8%, stronger than the forecast of 2.0%.

The single currency traded narrowly in Asian session and European morning.

ECB's President Mario Draghi said 'took decision on liquidity; further diminishing of inflation pressure; inflation expectation continue to be firmly anchored; followed by gradual upward movement; ECB monetary policy stance will remain accommodative for as long as necessary ; governing council expects key ECB interest to remain at current or lower levels for extended period of time; this expectation is based on overall subdued outlook for inflation extending into medium term; extend full allotment in liquidity operations until at least July 2015; real income have benefited from generally lower inflation; growth risks are on downside; global money, financial market conditions downside risk; October inflation decline was stronger than expected; inflation expected to remain at low levels in coming months; inflation risks are broadly balanced; upside inflation risks in particular from commodity prices; weak loan dynamics reflect primarily business cycle; technically ready for negative deposit rate; possibility for negative deposit rate is part of our artillery; we have instruments, LTRO and negative deposit rate are some of them.'
