Looking at the EURUSD on a hourly chart and see a great IT Cross forming. It will be the first dip into since the price went up. I look for it to come down to about 1.4724 then it will be a great buy. I posted the IT Cross below.

I've been getting lots of warnings from brokers to stay out of positions over the weekend because of the Greek vote.

My take profit at 1.27 was hit. I am going to go short at 1.27, with a take profit at the bottom of the triangle, the support should be around 1.26 or so, depending on when price gets down there.
See my chart, this is what I'm looking at.

EUR/USD
Trading in narrow range ahead of a busy day of economical figures, and after fading hopes of stimulus news, the pair managed to rise as high as 1.2330 so far ahead of 1.2350, a break there would open further acceleration towards 1.24010/35 zone, 24th July Low. On the other hand we have seen a higher low action during the past couple of days starting from 1.2225 30th July low up till now. Support levels are found at 1.2280 ahead of 1.2265, while 1.2225 remains the main trigger for bears.

GBP/USD
Negative outlook remains in play as long as the pair remains below 1.5700 to continue the head & shoulders pattern, another resistance is seen at 1.5730 ahead of medium term barrier of 1.5775, highest point since 22nd May. From the downside support can be visible at 1.5655 ahead of yesterdays low at 1.5625, a break would target 1.5590 and then 1.5550 zone.

USD/JPY
More volatility than yesterday is seen on the pair after the drop to first support at 77.95 during the Asian session, followed by the rise towards 78.30 zone where the first resistance is visible. A break of the said two points would open a direction for the pair either up towards previous peak of 27th July at 78.68 or below towards 77.65 low of 1st of June.

Gold
Trading on a side way action until yesterday’s evening drop towards 1610 gave bulls the momentum to re-enter the market and lift the Gold towards 1620 resistance. Breaking that resistance would open further upside to previous highs of 1627-29 zone and maybe higher towards the upper range of the sideway medium term trend to 1640. On the other hand, holding 1620 would trigger bears to test 1610 and 1600 next, which might open further drop towards 1590 and 1582

Market Overview by FXCC Aug 01 2012
China's housing sector has begun to recover
Standard Chartered proprietary survey of 30 developers has just been released, supporting the bank's macro-view that the sector has begun to recover. The bank concludes "land and apartment prices appear to have bottomed as appartment sales volumes pick up, with local policy loosening supporting the market" the report notes. While Standard Chartered believes it will be a long, hard slog back to boom, they are starting to gather growing positive indications that a recovery appears to have begun as noted above. "Our proprietary survey of 30 developers across the country suggests that apartment sales are rising in many cities, helped by price cuts and a shift in sentiment" the team adds.
The HSBC Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) remains in contractionary territory, having posted a 49.3 reading in July from a revised 48.2 in June, signaling only a marginal deterioration in Chinese manufacturing sector operating conditions, according to Markit Economics. The month-on-month increase in the index was the largest in 21 months, as manufacturing output rose for first time in five months.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Today major market drivers would be US ISM Manufacturing PMI announcement at 14:00 GMT and the US Fed Interest Rate Decision at 18:15 GMT. Technically, we expect increase of volatility later on today and break one of our suggested levels. Clearance of next resistance level at 1.2332 (R1) would open road to the next targets at 1.2390 (R2) and 1.2460 (R3). From the other side, loss of next support at 1.2249 (S1) might encourage executing of orders and drive market price towards to the next targets at 1.2174 (S2) and 1.2099 (S3) levels.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
GBPUSD consolidated after the upwards movement on the last week and ready to go for new targets. Next news in focus from UK is Manufacturing PMI for July at 08:30 GMT that might push market higher or encourage deeper correction. Next important technical resistance stay at 1.5732 (R1), brake here is required for market expansion to the targets at 1.5804 (R2) and 1.5875 (R3). Failure to go higher might push markets to retest previous day low at 1.5625 (S1), which is currently our next support level. Brake here would suggest next target at 1.5552 (S2) and any further fall would then be limited by last support at 1.5469 (S3).

EUR/USD around 1.2250, the ECB has come
Despite London session ahead will bring almost no macro data EUR related but EU PPI at 09:00 GMT, today will be a busy day mainly focused on Spain with Italian PM Monti traveling to Madrid to meet Rajoy according to newspaper elpais.com, Spanish unemployment change at 07:00 GMT, and most importantly, Spanish Tesoro selling up to € 3B in different maturities from 2 to 10 years, with last 10 year bond yielding 6.43% in last auction, and closing yesterday at 6.72% after 4 day fall from euro era highs at 7.74% one week ago.
But that will only be an introduction to main risk event of the week for Euro, with ECB meeting delivering the interest rate statement at 11:45 GMT followed 45 minutes later by very much awaited Draghi's speech, which will confirm or deny the expectations created past week with his words.

On the other side, brake of next resistance at 1.5583 (R1) might lead to the development of correction with next intraday target at 1.5654 (R2).

Brake here is required to enable higher target at 78.82 (R3). On the other hand, decrease of the price below next support level at 78.31 (S1) would suggest target at 78.12 (S2) and any further loss then will be limited by final support at 77.92 (S3).

Market Overview by FXCC Aug 03 2012
EUR/USD frozen; NFP the name of the game
London session ahead will be a quiet one in EUR macro data terms, with only some PMI figures coming from Spain, Italy, France, Germany, and the UE at 07:13, 07:43, 07:48, 07:53, and 07:58 respectively, all GMT, followed by UE retail sales at 09:00 GMT, with no critical auctions from the EZ sovereign front. Spain's 10 year bond yields had yesterday biggest boost of all year going from as low as 6.6% to 7.25% highs, while Italian ones also skyrocketed above the 6.2%, while German ones plummeted again below the 1.3%, thus making risk premiums widen.
But the name of the game today is called the US NFP, which is played at 12:30GMT, and that's what everybody will be waiting for, with expectations for the figure to be around the 100k, and unemployment rate to be unchanged at 8.2%, with anything below that being a bell ringing for Bernanke's next QE3. US ISM non-manufacturing PMI will also capture traders eyes as it will probably bring more volatility to markets, more even so after decreasing Chinese PMI data, last one today being at 55.6, coming lower than previous.

Market Overview by FXCC Aug 06 2012
What's in ECB policy toolbox in September?
After the ECB bluff last week, which saw Mr. Draghi falling short of concrete measures, the market, surprisingly, has turned optimsitic that the step up in ECB rhetoric means bond intervention is looming closer and closer. According to Standard Chartered research team, "we now see a rate cut in September, along with another LTRO and a looser collateral framework." The bank adds: "We think Spain will accept a European bailout in the coming weeks, key to ensuring ECB market support." Lastly, Standard Chartered, believes "the ECB buying is not a game-changer as there are still-sizeable risks in the euro area, including Italy."
London session ahead will be another quiet one in terms of EUR related risk events, with only EU Sentix investor confidence at 08:30 GMT, before FED chairman Ben Bernanke speaks at 13:00 GMT. In the sovereign debt front no critical auctions will take place either, with Spanish 10 year bond yields closing Friday right below the 7% mark, and Italian ones at 6.08%. Both had a big relief Friday after jumping to the upside the day before. (fxstreet.com)

Next support level at 78.33 (S1) protects now from possible retracement. Brake here might provide sufficient momentum and expose targets at 78.13 (S2) and 77.92 (S3). On the other side, further appreciation on this week is expected above next resistance level at 78.77 (R1) with next suggested targets at 79.01 (R2) and 79.23 (R3).

BoJ may tweak its operations again; no major policy changes
The BOJ is expected to leave its major policies unchanged at the meeting on August 8-9, unless USDJPY declines substantially, says Nomura strategist Yujiro Goto. "We think the Bank may tweak its operation slightly again to make its JGB buying operation easier" he said. This time, two new board members, Mr. Sato and Mr. Kiuchi, will attend the meeting for the first time. "If either or both of the new board members dissent against the governor, USDJPY would likely rise, but only until the market realizes that one or two dissents are unlikely to lead to any imminent radical policy shift" Mr. Goto notes. Nonetheless, "the new board members‟ inflation forecasts are likely to be more pessimistic and, thus, we think it worth watching for any changes to the BOJ's economic and inflation assessments" Nomura strategist adds. Keep an eye on any discussion about BOJ foreign bond buying too, Mr. Goto concluded.
In the European session ahead, the June UK Industrial Production and Manufacturing data will be risk event for GBP, due for release at 08:30 GMT. Later in the day, the National Institute of Economic and Social Research GDP Estimate is scheduled for release at 14:00 GMT. (fxstreet.com)

UK inflation report should keep GBP under pressure
The Inflation Report, due out at 9.30GMT today, has potential to influence the near-term GBP outlook, says RBS strategy team. "While the MPC will not want to be backed into a corner on cutting the base rate ahead of an assessment of the FLS (Funding for Lending Scheme), there should be enough dovish sentiment to keep GBP under pressure" RBS notes.
A quiet session ahead in London in terms of EUR macro data related, starting at 06:00 GMT with German current account and trade balance, followed 30 minutes later by French BoF business sentiment, and trade balance 15 minutes after, Spanish industrial production at 07:00 GMT, and probably most important, German industrial production at 10:00 GMT.

BOJ: no change in policy
The BoJ monetary policy decision is out and as most participants expected - not a clear cut as in previous months - , the central bank has kept the asset purchase fund at 45 trillion yen, with the credit Loan program also unchanged at 25T yen. Total size of Asset-Purchase Program remains at Y70 trillion. Central bank statement said economy picking up moderately. The Japanese GDP figures will be released next week.
Looking at the economic agenda for the London session ahead one should think another quiet session is around the corner, though with such extreme low liquidity given summer time holidays in Europe and London Olympics in the middle of the final series, any unexpected headline coming from nowhere could make things change in the blink of an eye. Still, no major sovereign debt auctions are scheduled from the EZ, and troubled countries Spain and Italy's 10y yields stay on check right below the 7% in the Spanish case and right below the 6% for his Latin neighbor.

RBA outlook for growth continues around trend with inflation on target
The RBA’s quarterly update on financial markets and the economy held few surprises for the market, says NAB economist Robert Henderson. To summarize the report, Robert reports: "The RBA expects some moderation in growth in the second half the 2012 after strong growth in the first half (at least as measured by GDP) and then the economy growing at trend ahead. At the same time, inflation has bottomed but is expected to travel within the target band out to the end of 2014."
As it has been usual in the recent past, Fridays don't bring any critical EZ sovereign debt auctions to take place, and London session ahead will again be a quiet one in terms of EUR macro data related, despite the bunch of minor figures will be released, starting with German CPI and HCPI at 06:00 GMT, followed 45 minutes later by French industrial,manufacturing production, and Gov budget balance, and Italian CPI at 08:00 GMT. The UK will deliver PPI figures at 08:30 GMT which could bring some volatility to cross EUR/GBP. (fxstreet.com)

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
GBPUSD successfully penetrated below our expected support level at 1.5653 and met our first target at 1.5606. Technically, development of the trend might occur in any direction now. Clearance of next resistance level at 1.5647 (R1) would suggest next targets at 1.5696 (R2) and any further rise will be limited by last resistance at 1.5755 (R3) intraday. From the other side, loss of next support at 1.5605 (S1) might encourage executing of orders and drive market price towards to the next targets at 1.5555 (S2) and 1.5501 (S3) levels.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
As expected yesterday, USDJPY continued its range trading mode and we are not expecting the sentiment change today. Next support level stays at 78.48 (S1). Brake here would suggest next target at 78.29 (S2), where we can see reversal of the intraday tendency. Any further fall would then be limited by last support at 78.09 (S3). From the upper side, next resistance levels locates at 78.79 (R1) and 79.01 (R2). In current market conditions we suggest to wait for clear signal of market sentiment change.

USD, from here to eternity - UBS
The US Dollar is likely to remain the world's reserve currency over the next fifty years, says Mansoor Mohi-uddin Head of Foreign Exchange Strategy at UBS Macro Research. "This eternity forecast could be derailed if a deadlocked Congress refused to raise America's debt ceiling, yet, in the absence of the US government defaulting in future, the dollar's dominance may prove surprisingly durable" Mr. Mohi-uddin said in a research note.
London session ahead has almost no EUR macro data related, with only German wholesale price index at 06:00 GMT, followed by French current account 45 minutes later, and Greek prelim 2Q GDP at 09:00 GMT. Little bit busier in the sovereign debt auctions front, Germany will sell up to € 4B in 6 month bills at 06:00 GMT, while Italy will auction up to € 8B in 12 month bills.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Market sentiment remains positive on the medium term perspective. The crossing of moving averages recently could be considered as signal of uptrend direction priority for today. A break above 1.2327 (R1) would suggest target at 1.2402 (R2) and further gain will then be limited at 1.2490 (R3). However break below the 1.2240 (S1) level might provide space for further retracement development. We suggest next target at 1.2165 (S2), brake here is required to enable final target at 1.2085 (S3).

On the other hand, drop below support level at 1.5656 (S1) would suggest next target at 1.5605 (S2). Final support level for today holds at 1.5555 (S3).

On the other hand, if the price does not manage to break above 78.41 (R1) we can expect the pair to retest support at 78.14 (S1) and a further fall will be targeted at 77.92 (S2).

EUR/USD
One week descend off 1.2440 double-top, has so far retraced exactly 50% of initial 1.2042/1.2240 upleg, with downside pressure seen on lower timeframes. Consolidation above last Friday’s 1.2240 low, was unable to clear 1.2300 barrier, as 55 day EMA capped the upside and near-term price action moving sideways. Immediate support lies at 1.2260, overnight’s low, ahead of 1.2240, key near-term level, below which to signal further extension lower, with significant support zone at 1.2220/00, along with Fib 61.8%, seen next. Near-term range’s high at 1.2315, offers initial barrier, while regain of 1.2350/1.2400 would reduce the downside risk.

GBP/USD
The larger picture shows the pair entrenched within 1.5500/1.5760 range, with 200 day SMA keeping the upside protected, while daily studies showing slight improvement. Hourly outlook, however, holds positive tone, as last Friday’s rally touched psychological 1.5700 barrier, with series of higher highs, seeing potential for possible attack at the upper range boundaries. Corrective action should ideally find ground at 1.5640 zone, otherwise, risk of losing 1.5600 handle and possible revisiting 1.5570/50 support zone, would be likely near-term scenario.

USD/JPY
Sideways movement and consolidation of short-term losses above 78.00, are shown on a daily chart, with studies in the negative territory and upside being capped at 78.80/79.20 zone, where also 200 day SMA lies. Clear break here is required to signal more serious action. More negative tone is seen on a lower timeframes, with hourly structure showing near-term correction on oversold conditions, with strong barrier seen at 78.40, where 4h 20/55 day EMA’s bearish crossover, keeps the pair under pressure. Fresh losses will be seen on potential loss of strong support and range bottom at 78.00 that is seen as a trigger for test of 77.65, 01 June low.

Short-term outlook remains positive, as the pair resumes its corrective move off 0.9654, 06 Aug low, with nearly 50% of 0.9970/0.9654 downmove seen on last Friday’s brief break above 0.9800 barrier. Near-term price action is in a consolidative mode, with important support at 0.9750 zone, also 20/55 day EMA’s, expected to hold the downside for fresh push higher, and near-term studies in the positive field. Immediate upside targets lie at 0.9800 zone, with clear break here required to resume rally towards 0.9850. Loss of 0.9750, however, would delay and turn the near-term structure negative.

BoJ minutes: members continue to pursue powerful easing
Minutes of the Monetary Policy Meeting in Japan on July 11 and 12 have been published, without any significant surprise. Comparing the forecasts in the April 2012 Outlook for Economic Activity and Prices, BoJ minutes reads: "Growth prospects will likely remain broadly unchanged. With regard to prices, the year-on-year rate of change in the domestic corporate goods price index will likely be somewhat lower for fiscal 2012 but broadly in line with the April forecasts for fiscal 2013. The year-on-year rate of change in the CPI (all items less fresh food) is expected to be broadly in line with the April forecasts."
London session ahead will be a busy one in terms of EUR macro data related, with main risk event for the European morning in the form of German ZEW economic sentiment at 09:00 GMT. But earlier will come French prelim 2Q GDP and CPI m/m, followed by German prelim 2Q GDP at 06:00 GMT, French jobs data 45 minutes later, EUR flash GDP at same time than ZEW, and EU industrial production. Following US session will bring more key figures like US PPI and retail sales at 12:30 GMT which usually move markets. In the GBP front the UK will publish its CPI numbers on yearly basis at 08:30 GMT, which could bring volatility to EUR/GBP cross. In the EZ sovereign debt auctions arena Greece will try to sell up to € 3.125 B worth in 13 week bills. (fxstreet.com)

EUR/USD
Maintains near-term positive tone, with yesterday’s rally extending gains to 1.2372 so far. As the price holds above psychological 1.2300 level and corrective pullback being contained at our initial support / 20 day EMA at 1.2320, fresh strength is looking for retest of 1.2372, above which to open 1.2386, 09 Aug high and 1.2400, figure resistance / 55 day SMA.

EUR little moved with half Europe closed on holidays
EUR/USD has just had another quiet and slow Asia-Pacific trading session, last at 1.2323, slightly above opening and session lows price at 1.23156, and below session highs at 1.2332, thus counting for a 16 pip range trading session. Nothing too exciting. The pair comes from a weekly high yesterday at 1.2385 following better than expected German prelim GDP, and holding above yesterday's lows and support at 1.2320. Local share markets are over all in the red, with Nikkei index below the 8900 points down -0.60%.
London session ahead will have to deal with half Europe closed on holidays, and no EUR macro data related at all, not even EZ sovereign debt auctions, and only UK unemployment figures coming out due at 08:30 GMT, which could bring volatility to the EUR/GBP cross. According to VIX, index that measures volatility in SP500 index put options, it is reading at a 5 year lows, which in some way shows how these markets are lacking movement as of late. European futures point to a lower open, according to Bloomberg. (fxstreet.com

Late 2012/early 2013 best guess for next QE3 - Goldman Sachs
Goldman Sachs chief economist Jan Hatzius recent note to clients warns of the increasing possibility of further delays on the Fed communicating the next easing package to the market. "While QE3 at the September 12-13 FOMC meeting remains possible, our best estimate is that it will take until late 2012/early 2013 before Fed officials return to balance sheet expansion."
London session ahead will be another one again with almost no EUR macro data related to be released, but EU CPI figures at 09:00 GMT as most critical, while in the EZ sovereign debt auctions front there was a Spanish one that has been canceled. Risk premium between Germany and Spain fell yesterday to a several days low around the 500bps, with German yields rising as risk sentiment is improving, and Spanish 10y yields remaining range-bound below the key 7%. Much worse FDI figures today coming from China showing a decrease in -8.7% in Foreign Direct Investment (YoY) (Jul) have been helping the recent rise in USD. (fxstreet.com)

Our next support level at locates at 1.2263 (S1), technically important level (Yesterday low).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
GBPUSD continue its sideways movements. We suggest waiting for a clear signal of directional movement. Next important technical resistance stay at 1.5703 (R1), brake here is required for market expansion towards to next target at 1.5740 (R2) and any further increase would be limited by final resistance at 1.5778 (R3). Failure to go higher might push markets to retest previous day low at 1.5659 (S1), which is currently our next support level. Brake here would suggest next target at 1.5623 (S2) and any further fall would then be limited by last support at 1.5583 (S3).

Antipodean intervention highly unlikely - ANZ
Direct currency intervention is highly unlikely in Australia or New Zealand in the near term, according to Richard Yetsenga, Andrew Salter & David Croy, strategist at ANZ. "Neither currency is sufficiently over-valued, and it seems unlikely that intervention would be effective." More broadly, "we may be in the early stages of a secular shift in the mix of monetary conditions, involving the combination of stronger currencies and lower interest rates" the team adds.
London session ahead will bring a soft agenda again in EUR macro related terms, starting with Germany PPI at 06:00 GMT, followed by EU current account 2 hours later, and EU trade balance at 09:30 GMT, and no sovereign EZ debt auction on sight for this Friday, as usual for Fridays, with Spanish yields falling while Germany ones rising, thus narrowing their risk premium. Even though session promises to be a quiet one, given current low liquidity conditions, and Spanish gov council meeting today, this could bring some surprising headlines around causing some wide moves.

Market sentiment set for September boost – Wells Fargo
With global equities up 11% from their June trough and while market volatility is at multi-year lows, Wells Fargo has noted a cautiously positive tone in FX in recent weeks: “Looking ahead, we expect European events to evolve favorably overall in September, which could further boost market sentiment,” says Wells Fargo in a research note. “Against this backdrop, the euro could see a further corrective rally towards $1.2750 and perhaps even $1.3000. For commodity and emerging currencies, we see the Canadian dollar, Mexican peso and Singapore dollar as candidates for currency appreciation.”
In another typical summer holiday session in Europe, the London session ahead will bring a blank economic agenda with no major risk events EUR related. In the sovereign debt auctions front Spain will focus the attention selling up to € 4.5B in 12-18 month bills, while its 10 year yields hit a new 7-week lows at 6.16% yesterday and the risk premium with Germany below the 500 bps. Headlines will keep driving market action on constant speculation about the future of the euro crisis. Starting tomorrow, several key meetings will take place among EZ leaders to deal on current situation.

Forget AUD intervention; RBA rate cuts far more likely - UBS
AUDUSD failed to have a close above 1.05 on Tuesday, with today's price action printing steady declines since the opening of the Australian market. Yesterday, the RBA signaled that remains in a wait-and-see mode as the effects of previous rate cuts continue to percolate through the economy. According to UBS strategist Chris Walker, "attention now shifts to Governor Stevens' semi-annual parliamentary testimony on August 24, especially in the wake of the Treasury's comments last week highlighting the strength of the currency." UBS very much doubt the RBA is poised to intervene in the currency markets, and "if the tightening impact of a strong currency eventually becomes too severe, the bank is far more likely to respond with rate cuts rather than a round of FX intervention" Chris adds.
For second day in a row no major EUR macro data related will be released during London session hours, leaving main risk events for the NY session ahead, starting with US new home sales at 14:00 GMT followed by FOMC minutes at 18:00 GMT. In the sovereign debt auctions front Germany will sell up to € 5B in 2 year federal notes at 06:00 GMT, while Spain had a good auction yesterday and its 10 year yields are down for 10th consecutive day around 6.2%, and risk premium with Germany below the 500bps.

Yesterday we saw significant volatility increase. EURUSD broke up our resistance level at 1.2369 and reached our final target at 1.2408. Technically, market sentiment is “Bullish” now and we expect further instrument appreciation on the medium term perspective. Further price increase is expected above the next resistance level at 1.2488 (R1). Brake here is required to enable next targets at 1.2524 (R2) and 1.2559 (R3). On the other hand, consolidation looks reasonable today. Price progress below the next support level at 1.2447 (S1) might expose next targets at 1.2415 (S2) and 1.2383 (S3) in potential.

EUR/USD
Driven by the news, the single currency broke out of short-term range, when gains accelerated, to clear key short-term barrier at 06/07 Aug double top at 1.2440. Positive sentiment that came in play on increased risk appetite, keeps the upside in focus in the near-term, as gains approached initial target at 1.2500. Consolidative action on overbought hourlies is under way, with possible deeper reversal to be ideally contained at/above 1.2415/00 zone, where Fib 38.2% and 55 day EMA, along with psychological 1.2400 level, offer good support.

GBP/USD
The pair consolidates its yesterday’s gains that broke above two-month range top and cracked our initial target at 1.5800. Shallow reversal on overbought hourly conditions has so far been contained by strong support of 20 day EMA and previous range ceiling at 1.5775, keeping the upside in focus, however, hourly indicators still pointing lower and extended conditions on 4h chart, do not rule out further corrective action. Another good support at 1.5750/40 zone, where Fib 38.2% and 50%, along with previous top and 55 day EMA, is seen as ideal reversal point in case of stronger dips. Only loss of 1.5700/1.5680, higher platform / trendline support, will sideline bulls. On the upside, lift above 1.5800 to open 1.5847, 22 May high, ahead of psychological 1.5900 barrier.

USD/JPY
Remains in near-term corrective mode off 79.65, 20 Aug fresh high, where daily Ichimoku cloud capped the upside action. Temporary footstep was found at 79.15, marked as ideal reversal point, along with 79.00/78.90 zone, Fib 38.2% / 50% of 78.15/79.65 and 55 day EMA. However, still negative structure on hourly and indicators pointing lower on 4h chart, keep the downside vulnerable.

The negative sentiment keeps to drive the pair lower, as loss of initial 0.9700 platform, accelerated losses through key short-term support and double bottom at 0.9655, approaching psychological 0.9600 level. Brief consolidation off 0.9617, yesterday’s low, has not shown much of recovery, as negative short-term studies keep the downside in focus, with some delay in stronger slide, to be seen on oversold short-term conditions. Clear break below 0.9600, to expose 0.9650 zone, 90 day SMA / daily Ichimoku cloud base, ahead of psychological 0.9500 level. On the upside, regain of minimum 0.9700/20, is required to ease bear pressure, while 0.9800 zone caps for now.

FOMC minutes more dovish than statement suggested - Nomura
The clearest conclusion from the Minutes, according to Nomura economist, is that "the committee appears poised to extend its interest rate guidance at the next meeting, while also suggesting the Committee is closer to implementing another round of LSAPs than was apparent before." It isn't clear, however, how the Committee will interpret the recent improvement in economic data, says Nomura: "The recent increase in payroll employment and retail sales were released after the meeting; if the Committee is likely to initiate a new round of LSAP at their meeting in September Chairman Bernanke may signal that intent in his remarks at the Jackson Hole Symposium on Friday, August 31."
London session ahead will bring again plenty of minor EUR data related after few days lacking of it, starting with German final GDP at 06:00 GMT, followed by flash French PMI 58 minutes later, German flash PMI 30 minutes after, and EU PMI another 30 minutes later. For the late part of London session and early NY will come US initial jobs claims at 12:30 GMT and US new home sales at 14:00 GMT.

The downside trend evolvement is limited by next support level at 1.2520 (S1), surpassing of which might lead to the next targets at 1.2486 (S2) and 1.2448 (S3).

USDJPY gained momentum yesterday and reached our final target at 78.78. Technically, picture is not clear. Instrument almost recovers all previous week gains and formed fresh low yesterday at 78.29 (S1). Brake here might provide sufficient momentum and expose targets at 78.10 (S2) and 77.91 (S3) in potential. On the other side, further appreciation is expected above the next resistance level at 78.73 (R1) with next suggested targets at 78.93 (R2) and 79.13 (R3).

EUR/USD
Continues to trend higher, as yesterday’s fresh rally broke above psychological 1.2500 barrier. Strong resistance at 1.25/6070 zone, Fib 38.2% of 1.3384/1.2042 / 90 day SMA, has been dented, with break here to spark fresh gains towards round figure resistance at 1.2600. However, studies in lower timeframes are overbought, with hourlies already pointing lower and MACD bearish divergence developing on hourly chart that signals a pause in current rally and opens way for corrective easing. Hourly supports lie at 1.2512, 20 day EMA, 1.2500, figure support and 1.2486, Fib 23.6% of 1.2254/1.2552 ascend. More downside risk would be seen on a break below 1.2430/00 zone, Fib 38.2% / yesterday’s low / figure support.

GBP/USD
Yesterday’s acceleration through 1.5800 handle, backed by FOMC comments that significantly weakened the greenback, pushed the pair briefly through our next target and psychological barrier and Fib 61.8% of larger 1.6300/1.5267 descend at 1.5900. Positive sentiment, established on a break above two-month congestion top at 1.5776, now sees potential for further gains, with another significant barrier at 1.6000, coming in short-term focus. However, overbought conditions on 1 and 4h chart studies, warns of corrective action preceding fresh rally. Initial supports lie at 1.5880/70 zone, ahead of strong ones at 1.5800/1.5780, loss of which would sideline short-term bears.

USD/JPY
The pair loses ground, as reversal from 79.65, 20 Aug high, where gains were capped by daily Ichimoku cloud top, accelerated losses on a break below 200 day MA at 79.20 and breaking below previous strong resistance and previous range top at 78.80, to nearly fully retrace recent 78.15/79.65 rally. Dips so far reached 78.27, with return below broken bear trendline off 84.08, turning the near-term sentiment into negative territory. Brief corrective/consolidative action has so far been limited at 78.60 zone, with more significant bounce required to regain minimum 79.00 to ease bear pressure and avoid revisit of strong support and base at 78.00 zone.

USD/CHF
Acceleration of losses was seen on a break below important 0.9700 and 0.9655 supports, with loss of 0.9600 handle, extending decline to 0.9550 so far, where daily Ichimoku cloud base and 90 day MA offers near-term footstep. Corrective bounce on overextended short-term studies has been signaled on a hourly chart, however, not much of action to be expected as long as important barriers at 0.9655/0.9700 stay intact and only violation of this zone would sideline short-term bears. On the downside, break below 0.9550, to expose figure support at 0.9500, then 0.9461/20, 19/18 June higher base.

Likelihood BOJ forced to ease remains high - Nomura
Following the deterioration in the Japanese trade balance in July, Nomura research team expects that while Japanese exports should recover going forward, the recent export weakness has one direct JPY negative implication. According to the bank, it puts further pressure on the BOJ to ease monetary policy again this year. "While US economic data are now suggesting a better near-term outlook, we think the likelihood of the BOJ being forced to ease remains high for the time being" the team notes.
Again London session ahead will show no EUR macro data related risk events on the agenda, with focus on Greek-EZ leaders meetings going on, today with Greek PM Samaras visiting German PM Merkel, and also on Spain possibly asking for the bailout as soon as mid Sept according to sources, with its risk premium back above the 500bps for German 10y yields. As usually for Fridays, no EZ sovereign debt auctions will take place today.

EUR/USD
The near-term price action remains in a defensive mode off the last week’s fresh high at 1.2588, just ahead of psychological 1.2600 barrier, where daily Ichimoku cloud top capped the recent rally. Dips have so been contained by hourly20 day EMA at 1.2500 zone. Weak near-term studies keep the downside vulnerable, with break below 1.2500/1.2480 support to open important support and breakpoint at 1.2440/30 area. Only regain of last Friday’s spike high and daily 90 day MA at 1.2560, would provide relief and turn near-term focus towards 1.2600.

Fed’s Jackson Hole conference key event this week - BNZ
The Fed’s Jackson Hole conference, due on Friday, is the event of the week. According to Mike Jones, currency strategist at Bank of New Zealand, "some of the market impact of Bernanke’s speech has been nullified by last week’s dovish Fed minutes." The analyst adds: "The speech is expected to be used to map out the policy (easing) options facing the Fed. If this has the effect of hardening Fed easing expectations then the USD should continue to suffer."
London session ahead will be a quiet one in regards of London closing for holidays and lack of macro economic data EUR related but German Ifo business climate at 08:00 GMT as the most important, preceded by German import price index at 06:00 GMT, and Chicago Fed Evans speaking at 10:00 GMT. In the euro zone sovereign debt auctions front, France and Germany will sell short term treasury bills.

Our forex analysis (http://www.forexpic.com/) show that Euro/usd is at very important level resistance . We have bear trendline, so if the euro do not break this line we can see the euro collapse. On the other hand, if the euro break we can see a new trend up to very high levels.

AUD/USD and GOLD are also at very important a key support and resistance and if they broken this support and resistance we will see nice bearish trend down.

Fed to deliver further stimulus - JPM
JPM is quite dovish on the next Fed policy tools to deploy, expecting Ben Bernanke & Co. to provide additional stimulus to the economy by extending the rate-on-hold guidance out to mid-2015 and increasing asset purchases. The bank expects medium-term US paper getting a better bid tone ahead of the Sept 12-13 FOMC meeting. A more marked move will come via real yields as investors bet on higher inflation, says JPM head bond strategist Terry Belton.
For the London session ahead the economic agenda will be soft once again in EUR macro data related terms, with Germany GFK consumer sentiment at 06:00 GMT, followed by Spanish final GDP 1 hour later, and EU M3 money supply at 08:00 GMT. At 11:00 GMT is expected EU's Van Rompuy will meet Spanish PM Rajoy, which could bring some headlines to the table giving some volatility to current thin markets, coupled with both Spanish and Italian short term sovereign debt auctions to be held today, Spain to sell up to €3.5B in 3 and 6 month bills. Spanish 10y bond yields hold near mid 6%s with risk premium with Germany around the 500bps.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
USDJPY depreciated today below the expected support level at 78.62 and almost reach our next target at 78.45 (S1). We expect further easing towards to our targets later on today however there is no clear tendency on the market now. Possible execution of protective orders below the support level at 78.45 (S1) might drive market price toward to our lower targets at 78.28 (S2) and 78.11 (S3). On the other hand, if market go higher and continue to be traded in sideways we suggest waiting for a clear brake of the next resistance level at 78.83 (R1). Next expected target at 79.02 (R2).

EUR/USD
The Euro remains in defensive since posting fresh seven-week high at 1.2588 last week, with one-month rally being backed by hopes of ECB’s action. The initial strength may be further losing momentum, as the single currency slips below psychological 1.2500 level. Today’s weakness dipped to 1.2464, Fib 38.2% of near-term 1.2254/1.2588 rally, just ahead of 1.2440/30 break point, also near 50% retracement and 55 day EMA, loss of which would spark further weakness. Negative near-term studies keep the downside favored, as immediate barrier at 1.2500 stays impact. Only lift above 1.2534, yesterday’s high, would delay bears.
Res: 1.2500, 1.2534, 1.2560, 1.2588

GBP/USD
The pair continues to trend lower, as a part of near-term corrective pullback off 1.5911, last week’s high. The slide touched important 1.5750/40 zone, where previous high / Fib 38.2% of 1.5489/1.5911 upleg and bull trendline off 1.5489 lie, as initial support and previous range top at 1.5770 zone has been lost. Potential break below 1.5740 would be seen as a trigger for stronger reversal and keep the upside targets sidelined, in favor of test of 1.5715/00, 200 day MA / 50% retracement, as near-term technicals remain weak. Immediate resistance lies at 1.5800, reinforced by descending 55 day EMA, while only regain of 1.5830 zone would provide relief.

USD/JPY
The near-term price action is running out of steam, as initial target at 79.00 stays intact, after recovery rally being capped at 78.80 zone, where 55 day EMA limited the upside. Fresh slide under bull trendline off 78.27 low, despite dips being contained at initial 78.45 support, sees more risk towards the downside, as near-term structure remains weak. Loss of 78.44/36 to expose 78.00 base for retest, while only lift above 79.00 would be a signal of further recovery towards 79.65 peak.

USD/CHF
Corrective rally off 0.9537, 23 Aug low, extends gains to 0.9634 so far, with positive near-term structure seeing potential for test of important 0.9660 zone, 22 Aug lower high/ 55 day EMA and 50% retracement of 0.9766/0.9537 downleg, break above which to confirm near-term base and open way for stronger recovery towards 0.9700, next target. However, negative larger picture, sees the current move as corrective part of larger downtrend from 0.9970 and unless firm break above 0.9700 zone, also bear-trendline off 0.9970, is seen, risk of lower top and fresh weakness, remains high.

ECB has no choice but buy periphery gvrt debt - Nomura
ECB purchases of periphery debt would be effective in ending a dysfunctional government bond marke, says Nomura economist Richard Koo. "While longer-term answers to this eurozone-specific problem include fiscal stimulus to tackle the balance sheet recession itself and a rule that addresses the issue of capital flight by restraining, given that both of those measures will probably take years to implement, the only short-term option is to have the ECB buy the government debt of peripheral countries" the economist said in a research note.
London session ahead will be another quiet one in terms of EUR macro data related coming out, with only French business confidence at 06:45 GMT, followed by Italian consumer confidence and retail sales at 08:00 GMT, and German CPI at 12:00 GMT. In the sovereign debt auctions front Italy will sell 6-month bills, with 10 year bond yields on the rise at 5.82% last, coming from multi-week lows Aug 22 at 5.56% for Italy. There will also be some meetings among different EU leaders going on which could actually produce some headlines.

Iron ore collapse has huge implications for the Australian economy - Macquarie Group
The tumbling iron ore price has the Aussie bulls on the edge after Iron ore fell nearly 5% overnight to $90.30 a tonne, down now 23% since the end of July. If commodity prices do not recover, Senior Economist at Macquarie Brian Redican sees A$10 billion of cuts would be needed for the Australian Government to achieve a 2013 surplus.
London session ahead will be a busier one than the days before, with main focus on Italian 10 year sovereign bond auction, with previous auction's yield at 5.96%. Apart from that EU's Barroso speaks at European Forum Alpach in Viena at 09:00 GMT which could bring some headlines. In the EUR data related front Spain delivers CPI at 07:00 GMT, followed 55 minutes later by German unemployment rate, and Italian hourly wages 5 minutes after.

Our next target for short positions locates at 1.2513 (S1), loss here would enable lower supports at 1.2481 (S2) and 1.2451 (S3) in perspective.

The currency traded yesterday without a priority in direction and all our supports and resistance levels remain the same. Today we expect that price will trade within the same price range. Strong signal should be provided prior to the trend development. Potential is seen for break above the 1.5861 level (R1) on the upper side. Possible targets stays at 1.5887 (R2) and 1.5913 (R3) levels. Downside development remains for now limited by next support level at 1.5796 (S1), only clear break here would be a signal of market weakening with next targets at 1.5772 (S2) and 1.5747(S3) in potential.

The USDJPY trades in a channel between our next support level at 78.45 (S1) and resistance at 78.83 (R1). A break in either direction will determine the trading bias for the medium term. In such situation we suggest to wait for a clear directional signal prior taking any positions. Bake above the resistance level at 78.83 (R1) would suggest next targets at 79.02 (R2) and 79.21 (R3) in potential. On the other side, loss of 78.45 (S1) would enable targets at 78.28 (S2) and 78.11 (S3).

ECB bond buying plan unlikely to be fully unveiled at the Sep ECB meeting - TDS
With summer drawing to a close, "it's time to see if the monetary weapons will be revealed", says Rich Kelly, research analyst at TDS. "Disappointment at some stage along the way is a real possibility and we eventually expect the ECB’s new bond buying plan to satisfy the market, but it is unlikely to be fully unveiled at the September ECB meeting, and once announced, there will be a lag before Spain asks for it, and markets hate waiting and uncertainty" the analyst notes.
In the sessions ahead, the UK’s non-seasonally adjusted Nationwide Housing Prices data for August will be key risk event for GBP, but the market is likely to be distracted as it awaits Bernanke’s speech at Jackson Hole.

On the other side, brake above the resistance at 78.57 (R1) might lead to the bullish scenario and expose targets at 78.85 (R2) and 78.91 (R3).

ECB to add some colour on bond buying - Nomura
Expect the ECB to announce its preparedness to intervene in the bond market after countries have called for help at the EFSF/ESM and under strict conditionality, Nomura Chief European Economist Jacques Cailloux said in a research note, published late last week. However, Nomura believes that the ECB will provide very little colour on the modalities of the programme at this week's meeting. According to Mr. Cailloux, once the program is implemented, "analysis shows that the bond buying programme for Spain could last 5 months with the shorter maturities rallying further in the initial stage of the policy response. Much more difficult will be how to anchor the longer end which will be the job of the EFSF/ESM, a task we believe will be very hard."
London session ahead will have another round of PMI figures this time coming from several EU countries like Spain, Italy, France, Germany, the EU, and Greece, starting at 07:13 GMT, 07:43, 07:48, 07:53, and finally at 07:58 with the EU and Greece respectively. Not much in EUR macro data related apart from the PMIs, with the focus on the US closed today on holiday, and ECB's Draghi to testify on banking union before the European Parliament's Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee, in Brussels at 13:30 GMT.

Current installation might suggest us about the market sentiment change. Friday decline below the key support level at 78.28 open the road towards to the new targets. Our next target level at 78.10 (S1) mark is not far away from current market price. Brake here would suggest lower supports at 77.92 (S2) and 77.74 (S3) as new targets. A move above the resistance level at 78.45 (R1) might drive price towards to the next target at 78.63 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited by last resistance at 78.80 (R3), important technical level.

EUR/USD
Last Friday’s brief break above psychological 1.2600 barrier, also one-week consolidation range top, did not materialize, as the price slid below 1.2600 handle, being capped by 20 day daily Bollinger band at 1.2636. Weakening hourly studies keep the downside vulnerable, as loss of overnight’s low at 1.2560, may trigger further easing and expose strong support at 1.2500 zone, 30 Aug low / 55 day EMA / Fib 38.2% of 1.2254/1.2636 upleg. Regain of 1.2600, however, would turn near-term focus towards 1.2636, break of which is required to resume rally and open 1.2700.

GBP/USD
Near-term price action remains in a defensive mode, following last Friday’s upside rejection at 1.5900. As hourly studies are pointing lower, immediate risk is seen on test of 1.5850, Asian session low, ahead of trendline support at 1.5800 and more significant 1.5750 higher base, loss of which to confirm double-top. Alternative scenario sees break above 1.5900/11, to trigger fresh extension higher.

USD/JPY
The pair remains under pressure, following last week’s failure to regain pivotal 79.00 barrier. Fresh weakness below 78.28, now tests initial 78.15 level, ahead of strong 78.00 zone base. Overextended hourly studies do not rule out corrective bounce, but overall negative structure keeps the downside in focus, as loss of 78.00 will expose another strong support at 77.65. Only regain of 78.80/79.00 will avert immediate downside risk.

USD/CHF
The pair consolidates last Friday’s descend when the price slid below near-term range floor and tested 0.9500, psychological support and 50% of 0.9041/0.9970 rally. As overall picture maintains bearish tone, no significant action to be expected as long as strong barrier at 0.9600/34 stays intact. On the downside, loss of 0.9500 to expose next supports at 0.9461 and 0.9420.

EUR/USD
Maintains near-term positive sentiment, as overnight’s dips were contained above 1.2560 higher, with previous high at 1.2636 under pressure. Break higher to resume one-month rally and expose 1.2700 zone with interim barrier at 1.2646, 20 day Bollinger band. Previous barriers at 1.2600/1.2580, now offer initial support, while losing 1.2560 level would delay and signal further consolidation.

GBP/USD
The near-term price action remains congested at 1.5900 zone, as lack of strength, seen on hourly studies, keeps the upside limited for now. Unless 1.5900/11 barriers are cleared that will open way towards next significant barrier at 1.6000, further sideways movements are not ruled out in the near-term. Overnight’s range floor at 1.5875 offers initial support, ahead of 1.5850 and bull trendline at 1.5820, loss of which will increase risk of deeper reversal towards key near-term support at 1.5750, 28.

More near-term positive signals are seen as bounce off 78.15 base ticks higher in attempt to clear initial 78.40/50 barrier and allow for further recovery towards 78.60 , to possibly challenge key barriers at 78.80/79.00. However, as overall picture maintains negative tone, failure to clear above mentioned barriers, will keep the downside risk in play.

USD/CHF
Remain under pressure, as near-term recovery off 0.9500 ran out of steam at 0.9560, capped by descending hourly 20 day EMA. Fresh weakness brings initial support at 0.9500 in focus, with negative near-term tone, being supportive for further extension lower and test of 0.9461 and 0.9420, next downside targets. Any recovery needs to clear minimum 0.9560, to ease immediate bear-pressure.

RBA Interest Rate Decision remains at 3.5%
The Australian central bank believes that despite the overall global worsening conditions in recent months, monetary policy is appropriate given inflation levels consistent with the objectives set, as well as economic growth in line with expectations. Widely anticipated by economists surveyed by Bloomberg where 24 out of the 24 economists questioned expected the decision to remain unchanged, in the absence of dovish signs the pair is pushing higher.
Australia current account balance has come at -11,801M in 2Q vs -14,892M in 1Q. Expectations were for -12.2 bln approximately. The contribution from Aus net exports rose to 0.3%, below a 0.55% forecasted.

Spain full-blown bailout done deal - Nomura
Spain will need full-blown bailout which will include more active role of ECB in Spanish bond markets, says Nomura in a research note. The bank thinks capital flight from Spain is in a "category of its own," with massive outflows raising “serious concerns about the implications for banking sector stability and economic growth,” Nomura strategists Jens Nordvig and Charles St.-Arnaud write in client note. Interestingly, the following line via Bloomberg points at capital outflows on 3-month rolling basis at 50% of GDP vs Italy 15%; for comparison, Indonesia outflow during Asian crisis peaked at 23%.
The London session ahead will bring just few minor PMI figures from the EU in terms of EUR macro data related and EU retail sales. Spanish services PMI will be out at 07:13 GMT, followed 30 minutes later by Italian services PMI, 5 minutes later by French one, another 5 minutes for German one, and finally another 5 minutes for the EU final services PMI at 07:58 GMT. EU retail sales are due at 09:00 GMT. At 13:00 GMT EU's Van Rompuy is expected to meet French PM Hollande so very probably some headlines will come that way.

EUR/USD
Maintains negative tone, established yesterday, following upside rejection at 1.2626. As the upside stays sidelined for now and price dips below 1.2560 breakpoint, near-term focus turns towards initial 1.2500 figure support and more significant 1.2486, 30 Aug low, also Fib 38.2% of 1.2254/1.2636 and near-term range floor at 1.2464, 28 Aug low.

GBP/USD
The pair remains in a near-term defensive mode, as 1.5900 zone proves to be tough resistance, with yesterday’s repeated failure at 1.5908, triggering fresh slide towards initial 1.5950 support. Weak hourly studies see the downside favored for now, as loss of 1.5850 is to expose trendline support at 1.5820 and round figure at 1.5800. Bearish 20/55 day EMA’s crossover keeps the near-term price action under pressure, with risk of double top formation still existing and loss of 1.5750 required to confirm. Conversely, break above 1.5900 zone, would turn focus higher.

Near-term positive tone off 78.20 support is running out of steam, as rally was capped by 55 day EMA, just under our initial barrier at 78.60.

Near-term studies maintain positive tone, however, extended hourlies do not rule out a pause in near-term rally. Previous resistances at 0.9560/50 are now reverted to initial support.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Yesterday, leaked details of the ECB’s bond intervention plan pushed EUR higher and our target at 1.2598 was met successfully. However our last target at 1.2637 (R1) remains untouched and currently is our next key resistance level. Market is waiting for official announcement from the ECB at 11:45 GMT and we expect volatility increase today. Clearance of next resistance level at 1.2637 (R1) would enable next targets at 1.2697 (R2) and 1.2754 (R3). For the downside we suggest next support level at 1.2570 (S1). Loss here might take the pair towards to eventual supports, located at 1.2510 (S2) and 1.2450 (S3) in potential.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
The key event for GBPUSD would be BoE Interest Rate Decision at 11:00 GMT today. Next important technical resistance stay at 1.5934 (R1), brake here is required for market expansion towards to next target at 1.5968 (R2) and any further increase would then be limited by final resistance for today at 1.5996 (R3). Failure to go higher might push markets to retest our support at 1.5884 (S1). Brake here would suggest next target at 1.5850 (S2) and any further fall would then be targeting to support at 1.5815 (S3). E.M.U.

The neutral channel continues to pressure the pair from the both sides. Yesterday high at 78.54 (R1) and formed low at 78.30 (S1) currently is the next key levels. Break above the resistance at 78.54 (R1) would bring in focus next target at 78.73 (R2) and any further appreciation might face final resistance at 78.92 (R3). As long as the pair remains within the same price range, support at 78.30 (S1) is acting a protective level for the pair to plunge lower. Brake here would suggest next targets at 78.10 (S2) and 77.89 (S3) in potential.

Market positioning for a stronger NFP reading - Westpac
Market positioning for US Aug non-farm payrolls is likely to be for a stronger reading than economists’ consensus of 130K, given the better ADP survey and also the non-manufacturing ISM, says Sean Callow, currency strategist at Westpac. The bank forecast is gloomier, "looking for 80K after the surprisingly firm 163K in July. The market range is 70-185K."
London session ahead will be focused on key data coming from the US at 12:30 GMT in the form of NFP. But earlier will come a bunch of other minor EUR related data, starting with German current account and trade balance at 06:00 GMT (all times GMT), followed by French trade balance 45 minutes later, Spanish industrial production at 07:00, the Netherlands industrial production half hour later, Greece final 2Q GDP at 09:00, and German industrial production and Portugal final 2Q GDP both at 10:00.

Next resistance is maintained at 1.5943 (R1), break here might open space for a move to test targets at 1.5975 (R2) and 1.6003 (R3) in potential.

If QE3 happens, may mark the end of USD weakness - Standard Chartered
Following the downbeat US NFP data, which for the majority of market participants paves the way for the next round of easing by the Fed being announced as soon as this week, there is other entities, like Standard Chartered, which remain more skeptical on getting too excited on this prospects. According to analysts in the bank, "we do not think US August payroll data means QE3 is a done deal in September." The bank also adds, "if QE3 happens, it actually may mark the end, not the beginning, of USD weakness." Standard Chartered remains underweight EUR, "supported by the view this week’s FOMC will disappoint" the bank notes.
London session ahead will be a middle soft one in regards of EUR macro data related, though could become into a volatile day anyways with the Troika heading to Greece, and PM Samaras expected to meet ECB tomorrow. First will come French business sentiment at 06:30 GMT, followed 15 minutes later by French industrial production, EU Sentix indicator at 08:30 GMT, and Greek CPI.

EUR/USD
The Euro remains stable, as Asian session trading showed consolidation of last Friday’s strong rally and weekly close above 1.2800 barrier. Positive sentiment, backed by last week’s Euro supportive data, sees potential for further bullish action, however, caution is required, as lower timeframes studies are overbought and the price approaches very strong resistance zone at 1.2825/50, where 21/22 May peaks / 200 day MA and bear trendline off 1.3485, 2012 high, lie. Some corrective action cannot be ruled out at this point, with dips into initial 1.2700 support area, Fib 38.2% of 1.2500/1.2813 upleg, reinforced by 55 day EMA, seen as likely scenario. Only break below 1.2630/20 zone, previous range top / trendline support / Fib 61.8%, would sideline bulls and allow for stronger pullback.

GBP/USD
The pair trades in a corrective/consolidative mode at the beginning of the week. Last Friday’s surge through psychological 1.6000 barrier and close above the latter, opens prospect for further extension higher, with 1.6060, 02 Apr high / 09 May low and Fib 76.4% of 1.6300/1.5267, seen as next upside target. However, corrective action, already underway, is seen preceding fresh rally. Dips were contained at 1.5990, Fib 38.2% of 1.5921/1.6033 upleg / 07 Sep high / 20 day EMA, during the Asian session, but near-term indicators, still in downmove on hourly and emerging from overbought zone on 4h chart, see scope for further retracement. Next supports lie at 1.5930 and more significant 1.5900 zone, psychological support / 50% retracement, loss of which would delay bulls.

USD/JPY
The pair has lost ground, as last Friday’s repeated upside rejection at important 79.00, triggered reversal that accelerated losses on dollar negative US data. Loss of the upper boundary of strong 78.20/00 base and dip to 78.00, sees more negative impact in the pair’s near-term outlook. Bounce off 78.00, on oversold hourly studies, is seen corrective, as lower timeframes indicators maintain bearish tone and daily ones moved into negative territory. Unless regain of 78.60/80 barriers is seen, immediate focus remains at the downside, with break below 78.00 to expose 77.65, 01 June low and possibly trigger fresh phase lower, as part of broader downtrend from 84.17, 15 Mar annual high.

USD/CHF
Dollar/Swiss extended its short-term downtrend off 0.9970, as break below psychological support and near-term base at 0.9500, accelerated losses through initial support at 0.9461. Weekly close below 0.9500, sees potential for further bearish action, as the price dipped to 0.9430 so far, just ahead of our next target and very strong support zone at 0.9420/00, where Fib 61.8% of 0.9041/0.9970 and 200 day lie. Brief consolidation is for now limited within narrow range, with any stronger bounce, requiring regain of minimum 0.9520, to aver immediate downside risk and open way for stronger correction.

EUR/USD
The single currency remains in a near-term corrective mode, easing further from last Friday’s fresh high at 1.2813. Initial support at 1.2750 comes under pressure, with further extension lower on weak hourly studies, to target strong support at 1.2700, where Fib 38.2% of 1.2500/1.2813 and trendline connecting 1.2500 and 1.2558, lies. Violation of this support would signal stronger reversal. On the upside, very strong resistance zone at 1.2820/40 zone is seen as a major obstacle and break here to accelerate gains towards 1.2900/1.3000.

GBP/USD
Near-term price action moves in corrective/consolidative mode, as reversal from fresh high at 1.6033 has been contained by hourly 55 day EMA at 1.5958. Regain of 1.6000 handle and improving hourly conditions, see potential for fresh attack at 1.60333, to resume the uptrend and focus 1.6060 and 1.6100. Alternative scenario sees risk of losing initial support at 1.5950 to open more important support and breakpoint at 1.5900 zone that would signal stronger reversal.

USD/JPY
Trades in near-term sideways mode, moving within very narrow range, following recent test of very important 78.00 base. As the upside remains capped by descending hourly 20 day EMA and initial resistance at 78.30, with negative tone dominating on lower timeframes, not much of bounce to be expected, unless key barriers at 78.80/79.00 are regained. Penetration of 78.00 to signal fresh weakness, with break below 77.65, required to confirm the continuation of larger downtrend from 84.17.

USD/CHF
The downside came under pressure again, as brief corrective action and basing attempt of 0.9430 low, was short-lived. Break below 0.9430 opens very strong support zone at 0.9420/00, reinforced by 200 day MA, below which to signal resumption of short-term downtrend from 0.9970 and focus 0.9366/33 next.

Spanish Prime Minister Rajoy affirmed on Monday, in a RTVE Spanish TV interview, that his team is "studying bailout conditions." On the contrary, he also said he will refuse outside conditions over a possible bailout, a contradictory statement that sooner or later will see the harsh reality slashing in his face, Either in coming weeks/monhts.
London session ahead will be a soft one again in terms of EUR macro data related, with only some French jobs data at 05:30 GMT, followed by German whole price index 30 minutes later, and Dutch trade balance at 07:30 GMT.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Despite the consolidation provided yesterday, EURUSD still under the bullish pressure on the medium term perspective. All of our supports and resistance levels remain at the same levels. Brake above the resistance at 1.2817 (R1) would suggest next target at 1.2870 (R2) and any further gain would then be limited to 1.2920 (R3). However break below the support at 1.2754 (S1) might provide necessary space for further retracement development. We suggest next target at 1.2700 (S2), brake here is required to enable final target at 1.2652 (S3).

If the price manages to stay above the suggested support at 1.5976 (S1), we expect market to retest our next resistance level at 1.6034 (R1). Clearance here is required for the instrument strengthening towards to our targets at 1.6069 (R2) and 1.6103 (R3) in potential. In focus is the Goods Trade Balance (Jul) release at 08:30 GMT.

If the price holds its momentum on the upside we can expect a further rise towards to 78.74 (R3). Fresh low is acting as support level for the pair at 78.01 (S1). Loss here might drive market price towards to our next target at 77.81 (S2) and any further easing would then be focus on last support at 77.62 (S3).

Consensus ESM approved: Will it come with conditions?
“Market consensus for tomorrow's Constitutional Court judgement is overwhelmingly that the Constitutional Court will not block ESM and the Fiscal Pact: 99% of respondents in our Investor poll this week subscribe to this view.” According to a Reuters poll of 20 legal experts, there is unanimous consensus the soon-to-be-established ESM will be approved but with strings as the wildcard. Strings could mean a German limit on contributions, making a case for euro shorts ahead of the court decision, due at 0800 GMT today.
London session ahead will be very busy as the common currency faces one of most important days ahead for its future. There are plenty of risk events in the coming hours, that will presumable pick volatility up. For starters in terms of macro data EUR related France will release CPI figures for Aug at 05:30 GMT, followed by German CPI 30 minutes later, and French current account at 06:45 GMT. Spain CPI will be out at 07:00 GMT, followed by Italian industrial production 1 hour later, and EU industrial production along with Portugal CPI another hour after.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Constitutional court expected to give its preliminary ruling on the ESM and the fiscal compact today, this would be the major market driver for the currency. Our target at 1.2870 was met yesterday and market closed on a positive note. Fresh high, formed today at 1.2885 (R1) is a next attractive point for the uptrend penetration. If a brake occur here we suggest gradual targets to be placed at 1.2952 (R2) and 1.3018 (R3). Next upcoming support holds at 1.2837 (S1), a consolidation development below it might take the pair towards to eventual supports located at 1.2767 (S2) and 1.2701 (S3) in potential.

Rise above it might keep the bearish pressure intact and expose next targets at 1.6136 (R2) and 1.6186 (R3) later on today. We placed our next support level below the both moving averages at 1.6051 (S1). Loss here might enable bearish pressure and downgrade Cable towards to expected targets at 1.5997 (S2) and 1.5940 (S3).

Next immediate resistance levels holds at 78.17 (R2) and 78.33 (R3). Conversely, next support level stays right below the fresh low, provided yesterday at 77.69 (S1). Brake here would suggest next target at 77.51 (S2) and any further fall would then be limited by last support at 77.33 (S3).

Market Overview by FXCC Sep 13 2012
QE3 done deal or coinflip?
An overwhelming majority, as reflected by recent USD selling, sees it obvious that the economy in the US is weak, and with Bernanke reminding how well past QEs have worked in his speech at Jackson Hole, not to forget the last straw being the big miss in last Friday's NFP reports, talking about a fresh wave of money printing announced today seems logical. On the other hand, there is a case that points towards 'disappointment' being a prospect not that distant. With Europe having kicked the can down the road yet again thru new stimulus policies by the ECB – subject to Spain bailout request and the economic data in the US modestly upbeat in general in early September, one may also make the case for another month of 'wait-and-see” by the Fed. Not to forget is election time in the US, and any new 'money printing' may be controversial.
London session ahead will be a quite one data related waiting for the key event for the day in the form of FOMC Fed fund rates at 16:30 GMT. During the European hours, few major risk events will be coming from Switzerland, so some volatility could be expected around EUR/CHF cross given latest moves, while for EUR macro data related the EU will publish ECB monthly bulletin at 08:00 GMT at the same time than Italy CPI, followed 1 hour later by EU labor costs index.

Standard Chartered has just published a note to clients revising the 2012 and 2013 forecasts GDP for China, now looking at 7.8% growth in 2013, and a better H2 than H1; "We lower our GDP growth forecasts for 2012 and 2013 to 7.7% and 7.8%, respectively (from 8.1% and 8.7%), expecting clearer signs of the start of a moderate recovery to emerge in Q4-2012 and early 2013." Furthermore, they, now believe "the interest rate cutting cycle has ended and expect the next move to be up, in late 2013." Looking at the CNY, the bank thinks "it should remain stable against the USD in 2012, but appreciate mildly as the trade surplus revives in 2013-14." Standard Chartered forecasts USD-CNY at 6.19 at end-2013, 6.00 at end-2014.

RBA minutes - Bias still to the downside
The RBA's minutes for this month's 4 Sep meeting is out, with plenty of downbeat commentary regarding the worsening outlook for Australia due to global and Chinese growth concerns, acknowledging prospects are now more uncertain. RBA added there is still scope to reduce the benchmark interest rate should outlook worsen significantly. The extent of RBA concern surrounding China appears to have worsened, while the potential for an October rate cut is very much on the cards. According to RBA, previous rate cuts are still working through economy.
London session ahead will only have a single risk event for the European morning coming out EUR related, but a key one, as German ZEW economic sentiment is, due at 09:00 GMT, which usually implies volatility. The UK will publish CPI figures at 08:30 GMT.

EURUSD remains under the sideways direction and we leave all ours support and resistance at the same levels as yesterday.

On the downturn, clear brake of support level at 1.3085 (S1) would enable target at 1.2995 (S2) and any further fall would then be limited by last support level at 1.2903 (S3).

EUR/USD
Near-term price action seems to be running out of steam, as renewed attempt through previous high at 1.3167 and linear regression channel top failed. As the price attempts below near-term base at 1.3080 and hourly studies entering negative territory, formation of doji-star-like pattern on the daily chart would be a signal for stronger retracement of past two-week rally from 1.2500 base. Initial support lies at 1.3050, Fib 38.2% and channel support, ahead of figure support at 1.3000, also 50% retracement of 1.2854/1.3170 ascend. Loss of the latter would put immediate bulls on hold in favor of further reversal into 1.2930/00 support area. Any reversal above 1.3000, however, will keep bulls in play for possible fresh attempt towards 1.3170/1.3200.

GBP/USD
The positive sentiment keeps the upside fully in focus, as the pair posted marginally fresh high at 1.6272 yesterday, en-route to our near-term target and 30 Apr swing top at 1.6300. Consolidation into 1.6230 zone is under way, with still strong momentum on overbought near-term studies, seeing scope for final push towards 1.6300.

Corrective easing found a footstep at 78.50, also Fib 23.6%, for possible fresh attack at important 79.00 zone, with lift above 79.13, daily cloud top, to signal further retracement towards the next significant barrier at 79.65.

Market Overview by FXCC Sep 19 2012
BOJ eases more than expected
The BOJ left the overnight call rate range unchanged between 0.0% and 0.1%. Amid much anticipated expectations of the BoJ following the Fed and ECB with further easing, the bank decided to increase the APP program by 10 trillion yen. The increase in the size corresponds to additional increases of treasury disccount bills by 5trillion yen and purchases in JGBs by another 5 trillion. BOJ keeps monthly JGB purchases at 1.8 trillion yen. As John Noonan, Head of IFR Markets, notes: "BOJ has eased a bit more than most were expecting. Market likes it and USD/JPY testing 79.00 level from 78.70 before announcment."
Lack of macro economic EUR related data for the London session ahead will be the news, with only ECB Governing Council 2 day Meeting starting today, while in the sovereign debt auctions front Germany will sell up to € 5B in 2 year federal notes, and Portugal trying to sell up to € 1.75 in short term T-bills at 09:30 GMT. Portugal 10 year bonds reached past week record 1 ½ year-lows around 8% coming from as high as 17% from Feb 2012, last at 8.72%, while Germany is dealing with 4-month highs touched on Monday at 1.74%, last at 1.65%.

With hourly indicators in the negative territory, the downside remains vulnerable, as loss of initial 1.3030 and 1.3000, also 50% retracement support, would trigger extension towards important 1.2900 support, Fib 38.2% of 1.2500/1.3170 upleg / and 4h 55 day EMA.

EU and Spanish authorities working on bailout program - FT
EU authorities are presumably, according to FT reporters Peter Spiegel and Miles Johnson, working behind closed doors on a an aid package to Spain as well as preparing for an open-ended bond purchases program by the ECB. Brussels is reportedly helping Madrid to tweak an economic reform plan thought to be announced next week, the FT reports. "According to officials involved in the discussions, talks between the Spanish government and the European Commission are focusing on measures that would be demanded by international lenders as part of a new rescue programme, ensuring they are in place before a bailout is formally requested. The plan will focus on structural reforms to the Spanish economy."
London session ahead will lack any major risk event related to EUR, including sovereign debt auctions, as usual on Fridays, whit EZ periphery troubled countries yields at more reasonable levels, with Spanish 10y at 5.87%.

Last week there was a change of mood on the main currency pair. Price could be fixed below the moving average near 1.3050, which is currently a significant drag. At the same time, the image fractal structure suggests the possibility of further reducing 1.2750/800 early in the week. Evidence of such reduction will be consolidating below 1.2900, while the abolition of the script will rise above 1.3050 support.

EUR/USD
The Euro came under pressure at the beginning of the week, as last Friday’s bounces failed to sustain gains above the bear-trendline off 1.3170 high and failed to regain 1.3080/1.3100 breakpoints. Fresh weakness brings the pair in the red territorry and just above the downtrend’s low at 1.2919, posted last week. Negative 1 and 4h chart studies keep the downside favored, as the price breaks below 4h 55 day EMA at 1.2955, where hourly 10 day EMA keeps the upside limited. Clearance of 1.2919, also Fib 38.2% of larger 1.2500/1.3170 upleg, is seen as a trigger for fresh weakness, with 1.2900 and 1.2850 to come in focus on a break. Initial resistance lies at 1.3000, ahead of Friday’s peaks at 1.3040/50 zone, while any change of direction requires break above 1.3080/1.3100 barriers.
Res: 1.2953, 1.2980, 1.3000, 1.3047
Sup: 1.2926, 1.2919, 1.2900, 1.2855

GBP/USD
The pair failed to capitalize last Friday’s break above key 1.6300 barrier, as fresh weakness followed two unsuccessful attempts higher. With nearly 76.4% of initial 1.6162/1.6308 upleg being erased, as the price briefly dipped below 1.6200 handles, more weakness is seen in the near-term action. Hourly studies moved in the negative territory and 10 day EMA, crossing below 55 and 20 day ones, maintaining the downside pressure. Sustained break below important 1.6200, also 4h cloud top, to open key near-term support at 1.6162, 20 Sep low, loss of which would open way for extension towards 1.6100 and 1.6074. Any bounce would face good barrier at 1.6260/70 zone and only break here would ease bear-pressure.

USD/JPY
The pair’s near-term sideways movement, turns the sentiment more negative, as the price, unable to lift above range top at 78.36, attacks the base at 78.00. Hourly indicators are in negative mode, though still moving sideways, while more negative tone is seen on 4h chart, as indicators are in the negative territorry and 20/55 day EMA’s bearish crossover, keeps the downside pressure. Break below 78.00 base to open way for retest of key supports at 77.12/00, as any corrective action faces good barriers at 78.36/55 and only clearance of the latter to provide near-term relief.

USD/CHF
The pair regains ground, following last Friday’s congestion, as the price found support just above bull-trendline off 0.9237 low. Lift above previous high at 0.9354, sees potential for fresh recovery, with Fibonacci 38.2% of 0.9577/0.9237, seen as last obstacle on the way towards key near-term barrier at 0.9400 zone, previous high and 200 day MA. Holding above psychological 0.9300 support is required to keep near-term bulls in play.

Will the RBA cut rates in Sept? - NAB
The RBA 2 October rate decision has many media commentators expecting a rate cut and the market. NAB: "The Minutes from September were softer than the post Board Statement when they added the line that 'The current assessment of the inflation outlook continued to provide scope to adjust policy in response to any significant deterioration in the outlook for growth.”' But we have not seen a 'significant deterioration in the outlook for growth' since early September. At this stage we'd say a cut is less a 50% chance."
London session ahead will bring all kinds of talks related to EZ debt crisis as Greece is urged by Troika to reduce budgets even more, Spain will release plenty of key data on coming Friday, and rumors on ESM to be leveraged up to € 2 Trillion make the rounds. In the economic agenda most important and almost only data to be released will be German IFO business climate at 08:00 GMT although the Netherlands final GDP will also be published 30 minutes earlier. European Parliament Committee hearing on Libor scandal will also take place today.

EUR/USD
The Euro remains at the back foot, as overnight’s price action steadies below 1.2900 handle. With yesterday’s corrective bounce being capped at initial 1.2970 barrier and pivotal 1.3000 point staying out of reach, more downside pressure is seen in the near-term. Negative tone on near-term studies, accompanied with widening Bollingers, focuses 1.2835/25, 50% retracement of 1.2500/1.3170 / 200 day MA and 1.2800/ broken bear-trendline / round figure support. Daily indicators in descending mode, confirm the negative outlook. Initial resistance lies at 1.2900, with yesterday’s high at 1.2970, also 20/55 day EMA’s bearish crossover, expected to cap.

GBP/USD
The near-term outlook turns more negative, as the price loses ground, with lower boundaries of recent consolidation, coming under pressure. As hourly studies moved well into the negative territory and initial support at 1.6162 being dented, clear break here, also marking the neckline of H&S pattern, shown on 4h chart, would be a trigger for stronger corrective action. Immediate downside targets lie at 1.6130, 12 Sep high and 1.6100, round figure / Fib 38.2% of 1.5769/1.6308 upleg / 4f Ichimoku cloud base.

Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services said today that it has lowered its long-term issuer credit rating on the Australian State of South Australia and the state’s financing arm, South Australian Government Financing Authority, to ‘AA’ from ‘AA+’. At the same time, we affirmed the ‘A-1+’ short-term rating on both entities. The outlook is stable.

In the sovereign debt auctions front Germany will try to sell up to € 5B in 10 year bunds at 06:00 GMT, while Italy will auction up to € 9B in 6-month bills. Germany 10 year yields closed yesterday in a relative safe 1.55% well above all time record lows from July at 1.12%, while Italy 10y yields hover around 5%.

Moody's downgrade to Spain as early as today? - NAB
After poor risk sentiment on Wednesday, immediate risk now, according to NAB analysts, "is that Moody’s may act to slash Spain’s credit rating to junk, having warned in mid-June (when it cut Spain by three notched to Baa3) that further action was likely within three months." The timing of ratings agency actions, NAB explains, "has been exquisite so don’t bet against this happening as early as today."
Busy session ahead in London with all eyes focused on Spain, though there will also be plenty of risk events coming on the way. German import prices will be released at 06:00 GMT, followed 1 hour later by Spanish retail sales, German unemployment change at 07:55 GMT, EU M3 and private loans 5 minutes later along with Italy business sentiment, and EU business climate index and sentiment data at 09:00 GMT.

ECB on wait-and-see mode this week - Nomura
No major policy announcements is expected from the ECB in October, says Nomura Senior European Economist Nick Matthews; "we do not expect any movement on rates as the Governing Council continues to see no urgency to cut rates again" the Economist notes. Furthermore, "while the ECB is likely to continue to expect inflation to remain in line with price stability over the policy-relevant horizon, we expect the Council to continue to stress that renewed intensification of financial market tensions could affect the balance of risks for both growth and inflation." Nick notes that "recent Governing Council comments, including from within the Executive Board, have reinforced this sense of wait-and-see on interest rates."
London session ahead will mostly bring manufacturing PMIs from several EZ countries starting with Spain at 07:13 GMT, followed 30 minutes later by Italy, France 5 minutes after, Germany another 5 minutes, and finally the EU's and Greece at 07:58 GMT. Then will come Italy unemployment at 08:00 GMT, and EU's unemployment 1 hour later.

Alternative scenario: Next resistance level at 1.6156 (R1) in focus for the retracement formation. Progress above it would enable next target for today at 1.6182 (R2) and 1.6210 (R3).

On the hourly chart Stochastic Oscillator reached oversold zone and further increase is possible from current levels however we recommend to wait clear break out of Friday’s high for confirmation of the uptrend formation. Further decline below our support level might change overall technical picture and shift market sentiment to the bearish side. Main scenario: Next resistance is seen at 78.10 (R1). If the pair manages to successfully climb above it, we expect next targets at 78.19 (R2) and 78.28 (R3). Alternative scenario: While next support is placed at 77.83 (S1), decline below it would put in focus next target at 77.75 (S2) and any further depreciation would then be limited to 77.67 (S3) intraday.

RBA cuts rate by 25bp; More may come in Nov
In today's RBA decision, the central bank has decided to cut rates by 25bp from 3.5% to 3.25%. The initial market reaction was to aggressively sell the domestic currency, as market participants pricing for -25bp to about 65% being proven right. Only 9 out of 28 replying to a Bloomberg survey agreed to such outcome, so it has been certainly a close call among the investment community.
All rates are expected to remain on hold at this Thursday’s ECB meeting, according to Standard Chartered Economists. With regards to OMT bond-buying, the bank sees Spain making a request relatively soon. Looking at the EUR/USD, "We expect the pair to grind lower as a Q4-2012 rate cut will add to pressure" Analysts at the bank say.

EUR/USD
Yesterday’s repeated upside rejection at 1.2966, proves that this barrier is tough and the pair lacks momentum for push higher. With subsequent reversal and slide below 1.2900, confirming near-term range trading within 1.2800 and 1.2970, risk-off mode is being established again. Near-term studies remain weak, with the latest reversal retracing 50% of two-day 1.2800/1.2966 rally, focus comes on 1.2875/65 support zone, higher platform / Fib 61.8% / bull trendline, loss of which to possibly attract 200 day MA at 1.2820 and range floor at 1.2800.

GBP/USD
The pair comes under increased pressure, as brief break above 1.6175 barrier failed to regain 1.6200 handle. Quick reversal and close below 1.6175, shifted near-term focus to the lower boundary of near-term range at 1.6100, with trendline support at 1.6125 being already lost. Break below 1.6100, also Fib 38.2% of 1.5769/1.6308 and 1.6074, 13 Sep low, to trigger fresh extension of corrective pullback from 1.6308, with 1.6035, 07 Sep high / 50% retracement and 1.6000, psychological level, expected to come in focus. Negative near-term studies remain supportive for such scenario.

USD/JPY
The pair continues to post marginally higher highs and higher lows, marking the near-term uptrend off 77.42 low. With the latest high at 78.29 and yesterday’s close above 78.00 handle, positive sentiment keeps near-term focus at the upside. Immediate targets lie at 78.36, 21 Sep high / daily 55 day MA and 78.53, Fib 61.8%, break of which to open way towards key near-term barriers at 79.00/30 zone. Bullish 20/55 day EMA’s crossover at 78.00, underpins near-term action.

USD/CHF
The pair regains ground, as the second leg of reversal from 0.9436, 01 Oct high, penetrated bull trendline and previous low at 0.9360/50, to find support at 0.9330, near-term higher base. As the bounce attempts at important 0.9387/0.9400 barrier and near-term indicators returning to the positive territory, focus turns higher. However, clear break and close above 0.9400 is required to re-attract 0.9436 barrier, for possible extension of near-term uptrend from 0.9237. On the downside, loss of important 0.9330 and 0.9300 supports will bring bears back in play.

EUR/USD
The Euro remains directionless, moving within narrowed 1.2875/1.2940 range, awaiting today’s data. Larger range top at 1.2870, along with psychological 1.3000 barrier, also 4h Ichimoku cloud top, is seen as an upside trigger for fresh bulls. Otherwise, loss of range floor and trendline support at 1.2875 would expose more significant 1.2820, 200 day MA and 1.2800, 01 Oct low, with break of either side, to define near-term direction.

GBP/USD
The pair remain under pressure, following break below 1.6125/00 bull trendline /near-term base and psychological support, that triggered fresh losses to 1.6066, breaking below our initial target at 1.6074, 13 Sep low. As recovery bounce stays capped at 1.6100 for now and near-term studies holding in the negative territory, fresh losses could be anticipated, 1.6160/75 pivotal zone stays intact.

USD/JPY
Regain of important 78.50 barrier and yesterday’s close at this level, signals further extension of near-term rally, as the pair rallied to a fresh session high at 78.71 overnight. Positive sentiment keeps the upside favored, with key barriers at 79.00, psychological and 79.21/30, 19 Sep high / daily Ichimoku cloud top / 200 day MA, coming in near-term focus. However, gain s may be interrupted by corrective pullback, as near-term indicators enter overbought zone. Any dips should ideally be contained at 78.40/30 zone, while only loss of psychological 78.00 support and 02 Oct low, would soften the structure.

USD/CHF
Near-term price action remains capped by 0.9400 barrier, round figure and 200 day MA, with choppy trading within narrowed 0.9365/90 range, sees the near-term action in a directionless mode. As the price holds below main bull-trendline off 0.9237 low, has already been dented and yesterday’s close occurred below 0.9400, further weakness looks more likely. Loss of 0.9330 higher base is required t confirm bearish stance..

ECB waits for Spain to act; bailout to come over the next month - Standard Chartered
The ECB looks set to keep rates on hold in November too, according to Standard Chartered European Economists Sarah Hewin and Thomas Costerg, while expecting recession "will trigger a cut by year-end" they note. Details on the new bond-buying plan remain thin, "but the ECB is likely to be tough on conditionality" the bank suspects. As per the timing abou the Spanish bailout, Standard Chartered thinks "they will need to ask for support over the next month, despite German reluctance."
"The ECB left its Refi rate unchanged in line with expectations, although market reaction does suggest there were at least some hopes for a rate cut today", says Vassili Serebriakov, Currency Strategist, Wells Fargo Bank. "With the ECB decision out of the way, markets will be looking ahead to US September nonfarm payrolls report", he says. "Judging from recent US data, the jobs numbers should not be particularly weak, which in our view could play into further gains in risk-sensitive commodity and emerging currencies".

EUR/USD
The Euro starts the week at the back foot, following easing off last Friday’s fresh high at 1.3070. Despite weekly close above 1.3000, the pair failed to sustain gains, as more negative sentiment came on a thin-volume Asian trading, sending the single currency below 1.3000 handle. Hourly studies turned negative, with price approaching strong support at 1.2970, previous peak of 02 Oct and Fib 38.2% of 1.2800/1.3070 ascend, reinforced by bull trendline off 1.2800. As indicators on 4h chart are descending and price below hourly MA’s (10/20), immediate risk is seen on a break below 1.2970 that would open way for further retracement, with next support at 1.2940 zone, 50% / 4h Ichimoku cloud top / 55 day EMA. As the risk of lower top at 1.3070 becomes more evident, failure to reverse at 1.2970 or 1.2940, would spark fresh weakness and expose 1.2900, figure support / 61.8% retracement, loss of which to confirm lower top and shift near-term focus towards 1.2800 base. Alternative scenario sees reversal, ideally at/above 1.2970 that will keep near-term bulls in play for fresh attempt at upper barriers.

GBP/USD
Cable’s last week’s fresh gains and brief break above 1.6200 barrier were short-lived, as the price sharply fell on Friday’s late hours and extended weakness at the beginning of the week, losing another psychological support at 1.6100. Upside rejection at 1.6216, just under bear-trendline at 1.6235 and fresh weakness that reached 1.6080 so far, keep the near-term bears off 1.6308 in play, with loss of 1.6066, 03 Oct low and immediate target, seen as confirmation of lower top. With 4h chart indicators entering negative territory, downside remains in focus, as loss of 1.6066 to open 1.6035, previous high / 50% of 1.5753/1.6308 and 1.6000, figure support. Bears may be delayed by brief corrective action on oversold hourly conditions, however, no reversal signal have been generated yet.

USD/JPY
The pair remains under pressure after last Friday’s strong rally that stalled on approach to psychological 79.00 barrier and capped by daily cloud base. Subsequent easing has so far found footstep at 78.50, previous high and 55 day EMA, however, weak tone on hourly chart studies and price holding below 10/20 day EMA’s, sees the downside still vulnerable. Loss of 78.50 handle would indicate further easing, with 78.30 and key near-term and psychological support at 78.00. Conversely, regain of 78.75, as initial barrier, would improve the tone, but any failure under 79.00 would keep bears in play.

USD/CHF
The pair recovers a part of last week’s losses that dipped to 0.9273, where temporary ground was found. Improvement on hourly studies sees prospect for further recovery, as the price stays above MA’s and indicators break above their midlines. However, 4h chart studies are pointing higher but still in the negative zone, with strong barrier at 0.9350, 55 day EMA / 4h Ichimoku cloud base, break of which is required to keep near-term positive sentiment for possible attempt towards key hurdle at 0.9400, 200 day MA / psychological resistance. Immediate supports lie at 0.9322 and 0.9300, with loss of the latter to bring bears back in play.

According to Markit Economics, the HSBC Composite PMI (covering manufacturing and services PMI) signaled a renewed expansion in business activity at 54.3 in September, up from 52.0; below 50.0 signals contraction, while above signals industry expansion.

IMF cuts global GDPs forecast, dowside risks worsen
The IMF has lowered the euro zone GDP outlook for 2012 by -0.1% to -0.4% from -0.3%, while setting a +0.2% in 2013 from +0.7%. Progress toward banking, fiscal union is required for rosier revisions. ECB could cut rates further, the institution says. Japan 2012 growth forecast was also cut to 2.2% from 2.4%, 2013 stands now at 1.2% from 1.5%. The BOJ easing program may help its GDP target, although more is needed to reach 1% inflation goal. China 2012 growth forecast was downgraded to 7.8% from 8.0%, 2013 forecast at 8.2% from 8.5%. On the US front, IMF said “imperative” to avoid year-end fiscal cliff, as it could reduce 4% of GDP in 2013 in the worst case scenario. U.S., Canadian economies GDPs are projected at around 2% in 2012 and 2013, but both face large downside risks. Cuts 2012 global GDP growth forecast to 3.3% from 3.5% in July and 2013 forecast to 3.6% from 3.9%. “General feeling of uncertainty” holding back global growth.
The UK is the focus of the day ahead, "with the August snapshot of industrial- and manufacturing sector output on offer as well as foreign trade data for the same month" Rabobank notes. The bank adds: "A small fall in industrial output is expected but after a pretty strong July reading, the sector is tracking to grow output in 3Q as a whole." The NIESR, a UK Think Tank, will also release their estimate of 3Q GDP growth.

MAS surprises but still room to loosen policy - Capital Economics
The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) left its policy stance unchanged today and it will continue to allow the NEER to trade within a target band of “modest and gradual appreciation”. The slope, mid-point and width of the target band will stay the same. The decision came despite stood at -1.5% q/q on an annualized basis in Q3.
A relatively quiet London session lies ahead, with no EZ sovereign debt auctions as usual on Fridays, and only minor EUR data related coming out, starting with French current account at 06:45 GMT, followed by the Netherlands trade balance at 07:30 GMT, Italy CPI at 08:00 GMT, and EU industrial production 1 hour later. The IMF-WB meetings will keep going throughout Sunday, with BoJ governor Shirakawa to speak at 12:20 GMT. Special attention might come from Spain, as the nation government holds its regularly weekly meeting, and markets expectations are growing on the country asking for the bailout after S&P downgraded Spain's credit ranking to one notch away from junk status.

Case for an RBNZ rate cut mounts - BNZ
The Reserve Bank of New Zealand may start to find it harder and harder to maintain its cash rate steady in the foreseeable future, according to BNZ economist Stephen Toplis. From Mr. Toplis: "A very weak PMI, followed by today’s weak PSI, intimates that Q3 GDP might print very poorly indeed. Consensus forecasts for global growth remain under pressure. The Australian economy is looking demonstrably shaky, resulting in grief for domestic manufacturers, and the RBA is easing. The NZD TWI sits stubbornly 1.4% above the RBNZ’s assumed Q4-average. And the annual CPI is about to print below the bottom edge of the RBNZ’s 1-3% target range. We, thus, now put the probability of an easing as high as 35%."
The BNZ Analyt adds: "We stick with our view that rates are on hold for some time to come but warn that the downside risk should not be ignored. The market is now pricing in around an 85% chance of a cut over the coming 12 months. It’s been pricing in a reduction in rates consistently for much of the last year and we have railed against it. While we think the odds are overdone, the situation has certainly changed sufficiently for us to be much less aggressive in our dissension. For us the catalyst for an easing will be continued appreciation in the NZD accompanied by a stalling in the domestic housing market."

Moody’s confirms Spain’s government bond rating at Baa3, negative outlook
Moody’s issued the following statement in downgrading Spain’s sovereign credit rating outlook to negative: Moody’s Investors Service yesterday confirmed the Kingdom of Spain’s Baa3 government bond rating and assigned a negative outlook to the rating. In addition, Moody’s has confirmed Spain’s short-term rating at (P)Prime-3. Rating action concludes the review for possible further downgrade of Spain’s rating that Moody’s had initiated on 13 June 2012.
In summary, Moody’s believes that the combination of euro area and ECB support and the Spanish government’s own efforts should allow the government to maintain capital market access at reasonable rates, providing it with the time it needs to stabilise public debt over the next few years. In Moody’s view, the maintenance of market access is critical because the risk that some form of burden-sharing will be imposed on bondholders is material for those countries that rely entirely or to a very large extent on official-sector funding for an extended period of time.

EUR/USD
The Euro extends its latest upleg from 1.2900, as penetration through initial 1.3000 barrier triggered fresh strength that cleared 1.3070, 05 Oct high and figure resistance at 1.3100. Immediate focus now turns towards September’s double-top at 1.3170, break of which to confirm higher base and double-bottom at 1.2800 zone and signal resumption of broader uptrend from 1.2042, 24 July low, towards psychological 1.3200 barrier. Near-term bullish structure remains intact, however, corrective pullback on overbought hourlies cannot be ruled out. Immediate supports lie atb1.3085/60 zone, ahead of 1.3030 and 1.3000 that should contain any stronger dips.

GBP/USD
Cable’s rallied through important 1.6100/24 barriers, bringing near-term bulls that were interrupted by 1.6100/1.6020 pullback, back to play. Clearance of Fibonacci barrier at 1.6124 now opens way towards trendline resistance at 1.6175 and Fib 61.8% of 1.6308/1.5975, break of which to focus more significant 1.6200/16 zone, round figure resistance / 05 Oct lower top.

USD/JPY
The pair falls to approx 38.2% of 77.94/78.96 rally, following failure to clear important 79.00 barrier and reversal being signaled by hourly MACD bearish divergence. Hourly studies moved into negative territory, but overall bullish structure remains intact for now. However, break above 79.00 is required to resume rally for test of key barriers at 79.21/37, 19 Sep high / 200 day MA. Conversely, slide below78.60 breakpoint would sideline near-term bulls and allow for stronger correction towards 78.45 and 78.30/25, Fib 61.8% / higher platform.

USD/CHF
Bears remain fully in play, as the price slides below key near-term support at 0.9237, with fresh extension lower confirming double-top pattern and opening way for further bearish action. Psychological support at 0.9200 comes under pressure, with brief consolidation on overextended hourly studies seen so far. Gains stay limited at previous low and 20 day EMA, with any stronger bounce expected to be capped at 0.9273, previous low / Fib 38.2% of 0.9370/0.9214 slide. Only break above 0.9300 would provide relief. On the downside, break below 0.9200 would risk full retracement of 0.9041/0.9970 ascend in the near-term.

China's Q3 GDP in line with estimates at 7.4%; Q3 print slightly better-than-expected
Chinese Real GDP for 3Q came as expected, printing 7.4% y/y growth - previously 7.6% y/y , hich had been the lowest reading since March 09. The Q3 seasonally adjusted number, however, came above expectations at 2.2% vs 1.8% consensus. While China's economy slows, data can be perceived as slightly better-than-expected, with QoQ numbers strengthening above cooling calls. Adds to signs China economy is bottoming. Ind Production came upbeat at 9.2% vs 9.0% exp, Fixed Investment better stood at 20.5% vs 20.2% expected, while retail sales were much better at 14.2 vs 13.2%.
Chinese Premier Wen noted that China's Q3 economic situation was 'relatively good' and that economic growth was stabilising. A better than expect GDP print will be positive for risk appetite, particularly given how far Chinese growth expectations have fallen over recent months. AUD, NZD and Asian currencies would push through recent highs on such an outcome.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Technical Summary: The pair is under the bullish pressure, as both of our Moving Averages are aggressive towards the price trading above it. Fresh high, formed today is our next reference point for further market appreciation. Main scenario: Key resistance is seen at 79.20 (R1). Clearance here would suggest next targets at 79.32 (R2) and 79.43 (R3). Alternative scenario: The downside trend evolvement is limited by next support level at 79.08 (S1), break here might lead to the targets execution at 78.97 (S2) and 78.86 (S3).

EUR/USD
The single currency maintains positive tone off 1.2800 zone double-bottom, as breach of 1.3070/1.3100 barriers keeps focus at key resistances at 1.3150, long-term bear-trendline off 1.4938 and 1.3170, 17 Sep high and double-Fibonacci barrier. Further hesitation is not ruled out, as the pair already underwent corrective easing from 1.3138 that was contained at 1.3100 zone for now and deeper dips would risk extension towards 1.3000/1.2975, approx 50% of entire rally. Clear break above 1.3170 would attract 1.3282/1.3300 initially.

GBP/USD
The near-term uptrend remains in play, as the pair extends gains to test 1.6180, trendline resistance and Fib 61.8% of 1.6216/1.5975 downleg, where gains stalled. Subsequent pullback has so far found footstep at 55 day EMA at 1.6120 zone. Near-term focus remains at the upside barriers, with penetration through 1.6180, expected to open 1.6200/16 and confirm base at 1.5975. Any further easing would face supports at 1.6100/1.6050, Fibonacci support, while extension below 1.6020 would revive larger picture bears.

USD/JPY
The price surges through 79.00 barrier after leaving a double-bottom at 78.60 zone, to approach initial barrier at 79.21, 19 Sep high and 79.37, 200 day MA. Overall bulls keep the break higher in focus, as the break higher would introduce 79.65 and 80.00 barriers, however, gains may be interrupted, as overextended hourly studies suggest corrective action. Initial support lies at 79.00, while any further extension should be contained at/above 78.60, also near 50% of 77.94/79.19 rally, to keep bullish structure intact.

USD/CHF
The pair continues to move sideways, consolidating recent losses that tested psychological 0.9200 support. Overall bears see scope for full retracement of 0.9042/0.9970 rally on a break below 0.9200, as larger picture outlook maintains bears and completion of double-top pattern keeps the downside favored. However, overextended studies on 4h chart and hourlies already moving upward, see potential for stronger corrective action that would precede fresh bears. Previous supports at 0.9237/73, now offer initial resistance, while violation of 0.9300 zone, near Fib 61.8% of 0.9370/0.9213, would ease bear-pressure.

Market Overview by FXCC Oct 19 2012
Framework for banking union by end of 2012
European Union leaders, according reports from Reuters, have agreed on a legal roadmap to establish a single bank supervisor for the union. A text of draft conclusions on the first day of talks in the ongoing EU summit in Brussels said leaders struck a deal on "the objective of completing the legal framework by the end of the year" with implementation "in the course of 2013", Reuters said. EU Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn commented, cited by Reuters, that reaching such deal is key "to break the vicious circle between sovereigns and banks". Framework for banking union by end of 2012, completion by early 2014, and is to cover 6,000 banks, according to a French official.
They added that potential for direct bank recapitalization from bailout funds in 2013. However, the German counterparts have denied that bank recapitalization can take place in early 2013. From German government source cited by Reuters: "Direct recapitalization of banks in first qtr of 2013 is ‘very unlikely’. Can only begin once an effective single banking supervisor is in place. ECB will be responsible for systemically important banks, but will oversee other banks if necessary. There will be a mix of supervision between ECB and national supervisors." Frictions between Germany and France on how to go about the banking supervisor authority had been a troubling sticking point, with German Chancellor Angela Merkel demanding stronger authority to veto national budgets that breach EU rules, while French President Francois Hollande had been more supportive of moving towards a European banking union.

19 OCTOBER 2012: EU BANK UNION READY BY 2014
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
EU leaders agreed yesterday to establish a single banking supervisor for the 6000 banks inside the Euro zone by 2014, opening the way for its rescue fund to inject capital directly into debt ridden banks. A legal framework shall be adopted by the end of this year giving the European Central Bank (ECB) overall responsibility for banking supervision. Most day-to-day oversight will still be delegated to national bodies. An effective banking union is regarded as a first important step to overcome the euro zone three-year old debt crisis.
Asian shares eased on Friday as markets consolidated gains from a three-day rally. Last night also Dow Jones and Nasdaq ended in negative territory. Both Google and Microsoft delivered weaker than expected quarterly results. This weighed in on market sentiments.
The Euro was resilient trading at 1.3070 in morning hours in Asia 70 basis points down from the one-month high on 1.3140 reached on Wednesday. The single currency edged higher toward Japanese yen which also continued to fall against the USD. The down-side risk for the Euro is looking weaker short-term. The Euro/USD will probably remain in its recent broad range. Momentum seems to build up to a new test on the technical resistance level on 1.3175. The dollar index against six most traded currencies remains stabile.
Gold prices slipped to 1735 and trades at present on 1739. Recent positive third quarter company results have together with better housing numbers boosted US Treasury bill yield and supported the dollar. Appetite for precious metals bullions have consequently decreased over the last days. Silver reached 32,70 yesterday down from 33.30. Brent crude fell to USD 112 a barrel. It has stabilized in morning trade, at 112,40. NYMEX. New York crude is still trading above 92.

Rajoy gets landslide victory in Galicia
El PaÍs reported a landslide victory by Rajoy in Galicia. In Europe, things seem to be progressing. Reuters is reporting that the Troika deal is 90% complete, according to the Greek Finance Minister, and that the Greek Prime Minister expects his nation to receive the next tranche of loans by the end of November; the November timeline is key, given that Greece will reportedly run out of adequate reserves by the 16th of that month.
Elsewhere in the region, eyes are on Spain as the Spanish province of Galicia becomes a focus for global investors, with a key election underway today; Mariano Rajoy's ruling People's Party is in the lead according to early exit polls. Economists continue to expect that Spain will do what is needed to secure ECB help in November, and a bailout would certainly help to soothe persistent fears about the breakup of the European Union.

Near-term price action moves in a choppy directionless mode, trading within 1.3000/70 range. Hourly studies show prevailing neutral tone, but loss of momentum may be a signal for revisiting range’s lower boundary, as the price slides below initial support at 1.3040. On 4h chart price breaks below 20 day EMA, with indicators turning lower. With upside being capped by previous high at 1.3070 and good support at 1.3000 zone, Fib 38.2% of 1.2802/1.3138 and 55 day EMA, keeping the downside protected for now, break of either side would give more clear picture of near-term direction. However, overall bulls off 1.2800 higher base and larger uptrend from 1.2042, remain intact for now, with clearance of 1.3138/70 barriers required to resume. Conversely, break below strong support at 1.2800, double-bottom / 200 day MA / main bear trendline off 1.2042, would significantly weaken the structure.

Spain is now where Greece was three years ago.
Steen Jakobsen, Chief Investment Officer at Saxo Bank, on an attempt to emphasize the dire financial picture in Spain, and what may come further down the road, notes Spain is now where Greece was three years ago. Mr. Jakobsen notes: "Spain is facing negative fiscal multipliers as any move toward austerity will aggravate the negative economic spiral. Even the IMF has now admitted that fiscal multipliers are far higher than previously assumed (0.9 to 1.7 vs. previous 0.5), meaning the end is not near to this crisis. The problem for Spain is the same as for Greece: a mandate for change forced on the population by unelected and non-accountable officials in offices in Brussels or Frankfurt is never going to last for long. "
Moody's Investors Service announced downgrades by one or two notches the ratings in five Spanish regions, including Andalucia, Extremadura, Castilla-La Mancha, Catalunya, and Murcia. In the statement, Moody's also confirms the ratings of the Basque Country and the Diputacion Foral de Bizkaia at Baa2. In addition, the ratings of the regions of Madrid, Castilla y Leon and Galicia have also been confirmed at Baa3. The ratings of Valencia were also confirmed at B1.

Euro searching for catalyst strong enough to break its range, FOMC eyed
Looking ahead, the Federal Reserve's policy setting committee began a two-day meeting, with a policy statement to be released Wednesday.According to Marc Chandler, Global Head of Currency Strategy at BBH, given the proximity of the election and the fact that an open-ended asset purchase plan was announced last month (QE3 or QE+), there will be a great deal more talk than action at the FOMC meeting.
"There are two issues that market expects the Fed to discuss. The first may fall under communication, but is really more substantive", says BBH. "Currently the Fed uses a calendar date approach, now mid-2015 to guide expectations of the minimum amount of time the Fed will keep interest rates low. There has been some talk…that perhaps the Fed should provide numerical targets". The second issue addresses the amount of securities the Fed is purchasing, says BBH analyst. "The question here is whether the Fed should roll the $45 bln a month in Treasuries it is buying under Operation Twist (and selling short-end holdings) and roll them into QE3+", he explains. "This would mean buying $85 bln a month in MBS and Treasuries a month".

RBNZ rate cut expected ‘next few months'
As expected, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) kept its cash rate on hold at 2.5% today, with Gov. Wheeler noting that market sentiment has improved, that the risks to the global outlook have become more balanced, that a strong NZD undermines the fundamentals of the NZ’s economy, which, he says, is expected to continue growing at a modest pace.
Daniel Martin, economist at Capital Economics (Asia) notes: “Recent data suggest that GDP stabilised or even picked up slightly in Q3, after a slowdown in Q2. However, we expect subdued global growth and currency strength to prompt the RBNZ into a rate cut over the next few months.”

Also it has been reported that on Tuesday will be closed for citizens’ visits buildings of the federal government in Washington, and the staff of not emergency services will have holiday. Thus the personnel of the companies in the Wall Street will be presented at the New York offices in limited structure, the big part will spend the working day far off.
It is necessary to note that the Ministry of Labor of the USA declared the intentions on report publication for October on Wednesday, as it is planned according to the schedule, despite the problems connected with hurricane.
Hurricane can also influence oil prices. Earlier already it was noted that on its way there can be some oil refineries in the general capacity of 1,2 million barrels per day, or 7% of oil refining capacities of the USA. In this regard production on the majority of the enterprises is already closed. Also we will note that because oil refineries reduce the capacities, oil stocks this week should grow that indirectly conducts to decrease in the oil prices in North America and also to growth of spread of Brent-WTI.
Today, this morning oil is decreasing and traded on a level of 109.05 dollars per barrel for a BRENT and 85.33 dollars for LIGHT.

31 OCTOBER 2012: ASIAN MARKETS ARE RECOVERING
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Today Asian stocks markets except for China are gaining in price. Better than the others looks Japanese Nikkei which has lost yesterday before closing of a trading session about 1%. The bank of Japan expanded yesterday the program of repayment of bonds on 11 trillion yens (to 91 trillion) that practically coincided with expectations, thus was declared that fight against a deflation is a priority task. Accordingly to a regulator estimates, by 2014 inflation in the country should reach level of 0,8%, but the target level is 1%. On this background investors safely can expect further continuous monetary easing policies in Japan. Meanwhile the Japanese yen continues some strengthening after last wave of decrease, and today currency pair USD/JPY already bargains at level 79,6 against 80 on Friday.
Today the trading at the exchanges of USA should renew. The main blow of hurricane “Sandy” is over; the building of the New York stock exchange did not suffer. Investors with big tension expected information on renewal of the auctions - at the end of the week there is coming a lot of an important macroeconomic statistics. In the centre of attention there will be data on a labor market, the last one before the elections in the United States.
In absence of the trading in the USA, the prices for oil following the results of last session showed multidirectional dynamics. The spread in December contracts between the Brent and WTI brands makes at present 23,4 dollars. Volumes naturally appeared essentially below averages. According to Reuters, owing to elements on east coast of the USA, 2/3 of all oil refining enterprises appeared closed. Besides, the stop touched also the largest oil pipeline. Nevertheless, already in the nearest future the situation should be stabilized. Today in the morning we can see Brent traded on 109.20 and Light on a level of 85.99.
One of the world's largest investment companies BlackRock on Tuesday issued the review concerning the market of metals in which expressed opinion on an undervaluation of this type of raw materials. In their opinion, demand from China still remains high, despite decrease in growth rates of economy of Heavenly Empire, and the economic situation in Europe and the USA essentially improved. In this regard, in their opinion, it is possible to expect growth of cost of such goods, as copper, iron ore and others.
We could already observe the result of this statement during Asian trading session; there metal companies were measurably growing this morning.

At the same time volatility is increasing in trading of futures for oil of the Brent brand. Yesterday's statistics from Ministry for the Power Generating Industry of USA, shown essential reduction of stocks of oil in country which has supported prices of oil. As a result futures for oil of Brent brand continue to bargain around $108 for barrel. Gold with delivery in December on COMEX fell in the price for 0,2 % to level to $1715,50 for troy ounce. At the currency trading dollar got stronger against euro, the British pound and yen.
Today the long-awaited report from a labor market of USA for October will be announced. On forecasts data is expected to be quite different: unemployment rate can exceed previous indicator, but number taken out of agricultural sector can grow - that in turn can promote raised volatility of trading in the first half of session. It is necessary to note that as a whole this statistics is capable to set moods of investors. However reaction to it can appear to be short-term on the threshold of a coming election of the president of USA.

Greece to present new austerity package today
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The Greece government, still in despair trying to find new ways to cut public spending, will present a new austerity proposal to parliament on Monday. In the proposal, it will be key to win enough acceptance if the country is to comply with the Troika requirements and not put at risk a still 'doubtful' next aid tranche worth over EUR 31.5 billion. The country faces a new week with tensions in the street escalating fast, with plans of strikes and protests. A 2-day strike against the next austerity bill is expected on Tuesday, with marches through Athens' city centre taking place. Greek parliament will be voting on an austerity package mounting 13.5 billion euros, mainly aimed at tax hikes and more flexibility for firms to enroll people on temporary labour contracts and make them redundant.
"These will be the last cuts in wages and pensions," Samaras said on Sunday, cited by Reuters. "We promised to avert the country's exit from the euro and this is what we are doing. We have given absolute priority to this because if we do not achieve this everything else will be meaningless" Samaras added. As Richard Lee, FXstreet contributor, notes: "A dead vote on the austerity measure would place significant pressure on the single currency, as a delay of disbursement by the EU’s Troika could technically place Greece in a sovereign default. Greek benchmark 10-year bonds are reflective of the sentiment, with the yield rising a little over 40 basis point to 18.18% in the last two days."

The Euro is once again under strong downward pressure with Greece back in focus after what is described as a “disastrous” 2013-budget. Both deficit and debt targets seem to overshoot due to a deeper than forecast Greek recession.
Greek and Euro zone policy makers’ effort to shape a deal to prevent the collapse of the Greece’s rescue packages, hang on the cliff. There remains room for nasty surprises and potentially a failure of the intended bailout. This has brought the possibility for a Greek exit from the Euro zone back on the agenda. Euro/USD is trading at 1.2831. USD is also stronger against JPY trading at 80,42.
Last week saw a string of encouraging data releases from the US culminating in Friday’s robust non-farm payrolls report on 171 000 new jobs created in October. The unemployment rate was up from 7.8 to 7,9 percent indicating a slow, but sustained economic recovery.
Uncertainty ahead of Wednesday’s US presidential election along with worries about the “fiscal cliff” of tax increases and spending cuts facing the United States, limited the feel good factor of investors. With the outcome of the elections hanging on the edge, markets are left concerned whether the newly elected president will have the political capability to deal with the fiscal cliff. Uncertainties related to automatic fiscal tightening may undermine the recent economic rebound. This does not bode well for general risk appetite.
Wall Street’s initial positive reaction to the positive labor figures quickly faded and gold and industrial metal prices sank with the dollar climbing sharply.

Daily Forex Market Analysis from FXCC Nov 06 2012
Greece submits austerity bill to parliament; narrow win expected
The Greece government submitted on Monday the €13.5bn austerity bill to parliament. Now the next step is to vote for it, first to be considered by parliamentary committees on Tuesday and a full vote on Wednesday. Despite there has been some defectors the ruling coalition, expectations are pointing for a narrow win, thought to be enough to not jeopardize the next aid tranche worth over EUR 31.5 billion. According to James Coleman, Founder at Forexlive: "A failure to pass the austerity law would send the entire bailout process into chaos and rise the prospect of Greece defaulting later this month. A much weaker euro would result."
As the Guardian UK notes: "Democratic Left, the junior partner in the coalition, tells us it will abstain on the vote and predicts a narrow win for Antonis Samaras's government." A Reuters report raised concerns earlier on Monday, after it suggested that eurozone leaders will hold out any decision on the next disbursement to Greece until the last minute, that is, the next November 12 EU official meeting may yet again disappoint on this front as no guarantee of a decision seems in sight.- FXstreet.com

06 NOVEMBER 2012: EURO DROPS TO TWO MONTHS LOW
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The Euro continued to fall and reached its lowest level against the USD in two months trading at 1.2787 Tuesday morning. The outlook for the Euro is clouded by uncertainty over the outcome of a Greek parliamentarian vote on further austerity steps needed for Athens to secure international aid. Prior to the vote in the Parliament on Wednesday Prime Minister Antonis Samaras stated that Greece would run out of funds within some few weeks without a quick international bailout injection.
The Greek Parliament shall vote on a package of measures of cost cuts and tax hikes of a total value of 13,5 billion Euros by 2016. Approval of the measures are crucial to unlocking 31,5 billion Euros in aid from the International Monetary Fund, IMF and EU. Release of the bailout funds have been kept on hold for months. The uncertainty surrounding the outcome of the parliamentarian vote, has pushed the euro out of the 1.2800 – 1.3000 trading range held since mid-September. The next immediate technical support level is around 1.2740.
Stocks advanced modestly in New York on Monday in a quiet session the day before the presidential election. President Obama has a slight lead in the last opinion polls, but whatever the outcome the election’s resolution will finally end the uncertainty that has kept the markets stagnant for the past few weeks. Reelection of Obama or a Romney victory could anyhow lead to a relief rally. Nasdaq was the strongest performer yesterday helped by a rally in Apple. Apple’s stocks rose 1,4% after falling 17 percent since its closing high of USD 705 on September 21.
The Australian dollar is steady at USD 1,0369 prior to Australian Reserve Bank’s rate decision later today. A rate cut of 25 basis point to cash rate to 3,0 % is expected. In relation to Japanese yen the USD eased to 80,23 after rallying to a six-month high of 80,68 on Friday.
Oil prices steadied. Brent crude is trading at 108 a barrel caught between uncertainties on the outcome of the US presidential elections and worries about Greece and the euro zone crisis which could delay a global economic recovery and hurt oil demand. Gold (1686) and silver (31.10) have picked up from its lows on Friday.

Daily Forex Market Analysis from FXCC Nov 07 2012
Obama re-elected as US President
Barack Obama's second four year term in the White House is a reality, with semi-official confirmations given just minutes after 4GMT when most media outlets, including NBC, CBS, SKY,AP, Bloomberg, projected Obama's victory in Ohio, a key state for Obama in order to guarantee another second four year mandate. Mel Know, Editor at FXstreet.com, reports: "there were people somewhat surprised of the early confirmation of victory, but Obama has been picking off key swing states one by one. With 73% of the vote in, Ohio is projected to go to the president – no republican has ever won the presidency without winning Ohio. The president has also won in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, leaving Romney required to win all three battleground states of Ohio, Florida and Virginia, where the race is too close to call. But the president has already reached the magical 270 Electoral College mark. Game over."
The USD was sold-off aggressively as soon as the news of an Obama win came in, with markets pricing in an extended term from the president that has brought the US debt to GDP to uncharted territories by enjoying at the helm of the Fed ultra-dovish Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and his quest for QE to infinity.According to John J Hardy, Head of FX Strategy at Saxo Bank, the Obama victory, "is more risk positive, USD negative as immediate reaction, but any further reaction in this direction could quickly fade as uncertainty over fiscal cliff settles, which would be USD positive and risk negative." - FXstreet.com

EUR/USD
The Euro bounces strongly on dollar-negative US elections results, leaving temporary base at 1.2770 zone, with break below important 1.2800 support, proved to be false for now. With hourly bulls gaining pace and indicators well in the positive territory, 4h chart outlook shows prevailing bear-trend is now fading, but to give more credibility and confirm reversal, break above important 1.2880/1.2900 zone (previous base / daily Ichimoku cloud top / 55 day EMA / channel resistance) is required. Sustained break above 1.2900 handle, between 50 % and 61.8% of 1.3020/1.2762 descend, would avert immediate downside risk and bring the pair back to two-month range. On the downside, 1.2840/25 zone (05 Nov high / 200 day MA), offers good support, while slide below 1.2800 would signal resumption of larger downtrend from 1.3138.
Res: 1.2873, 1.2880, 1.2890, 1.2900

GBP/USD
Hourly structure turns positive, as the price finds footstep at 1.5956, with subsequent bounce through 1.6000 handle retracing 38.2% of 1.6174/1.5956 descend at 1.6040. As 4h studies start to point higher, break here, also 55 day EMA and regain of 1.6090, Fib 61.8% / 1.6100, round figure resistance, would confirm near-term bullish stance. Otherwise, lower boundaries of near-term range, would remain in focus. Daily structure is in neutral mode, as the price remains entrenched within 1.5900/1.6170 range, since mid-October.

USD/JPY
Near-term price action moves in a sideways mode, as previous high at 80.67 stays intact for now and downside remains protected at 80.00 and 79.80, overnight’s spike low and 61.8% of 79.27/80.67 upleg. Hourly studies are still in the negative zone, while 4h indicators are losing traction. Regain of yesterday’s high at 80.43 to improve and shift focus higher. Conversely, losing 80.00/79.80 support zone, would revive bears and open way for stronger reversal towards Fib 38.2% of 77.94/80.67 at 79.63 and key near-term support at 79.27, 30 Oct low / 50% retracement.

USD/CHF
The pair loses ground after unsuccessful attempt to clear 0.9430/36 barrier and fresh weakness below 0.9400 handle, as signaled by hourly RSI and MACD divergence. With hourly indicators in the negative territory and 4h ones descending from overbought area, further correction is seen likely, as the price cracks 200 day MA and daily Ichimoku cloud base, with Fibonacci supports at 0.9360 and 0.9335, seen next. Loss of 0.9300 handle, also Fib 61.8% of 0.9213/0.9454, would be bearish. On the upside, lift above initial 0.9400 barrier, is required to re-focus 0.9436/54.

07 NOVEMBER 2012: DOLLAR FALLS ON OBAMA VICTORY
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Securing victory in important swing states as Ohio, New Hampshire and Florida, President Obama seems to have won a clear majority and reelection in the US Presidential elections. As the results started to come in during the night, stock futures and the dollar fell against a basket of major currencies. Euro/USD which slipped to 1.2760 on Monday is up to 1.2860 in morning trade in Asia. Gold jumped 40 dollar to 1725 and benchmark treasuries rose. Also oil prices are up. NYMEX at 888 and Brent crude trading at 110,80. Asian shares rose on Obama’s reelection. The result means an end to the uncertainty which have ridden the markets for last weeks, and signals no dramatic shift in US economic policy.
Obama’s victory is in line with market’s expectations. A close race was, however, expected. The general view is that a second Democratic term under Obama would favor bonds. It is perceived that Obama favors bonds and low interest rates. The Republican challenger, Mitt Romney, is generally seen as more business friendly. As a former business executive he is seen as more supportive for equities. As results came in, US futures fell while Asian shares rose amid relief that there was a clear-cut result. The South East Asian Pacific Index, MSCI, was up 0,4 %.
The general signal coming from world markets is that the election outcome is in line with expectations. The temporary fall in the USD suggests that any precautionary positioning in USD has been premature. The Australian AXJO index rose 0,5 percent supported by overnight rise in commodities that boosted mining stocks. The Australian dollar hit a five-week high at 1.0461. Euro/USD touched a session high on 1.2876 being safely backed in the corridor between 1.28 and 1.30 which we have seen over the last five – six weeks. Analysts see Obama’s victory as a continuation of monetary quantitative easing. Active use of the printing press would put pressure on the dollar and boost bonds.
The big domestic challenge for Obama is seen to be cooperation with a Republican dominated Congress in how avert the looming “fiscal cliff” where USD 600 billion worth of spending cuts and tax increases risk pushing the economy into deep recession. Any sharp downturn in the world’s largest economy would raise concerns about demand for industrial metals. The markets first reaction has been to send commodities, oil and precious metals higher.
In Greece parliament later today is going to vote on a package of 13,5 billion Euro of spending cuts and tax hikes. These austerity measures are crucial to unlocking 31,5 billion euro in aid from global lenders to keep the debt-ridden country afloat. A negative vote is going to put the Euro under new pressure.

Daily Forex Market Analysis from FXCC Nov 08 2012
Small chance of a ECB rate cut in November; BoE might introduce additional QE
Market experts' views on the ECB and the BoE November monetary policy meetings are rather mixed, as recent economic data and the developments in the European debt crisis as well as the implications of the central banks' latest decisions leaves them with options for action this month. Almost all of the analysts contributing to the special forecast report agree that there is a very slight possibility of the ECB carrying out an interest rate cut at the upcoming meeting because, as Ilian Yotov writes, "with the OMT bond buying program plan already in place" the central bank can afford to wait for another month." Only Yohay Elam believes that "there is a good chance that the ECB will cut the rates by 0.25%" in November, in the light of "a small slide in inflation, the worsening economic situation, and fear of another credit crunch."
As far as the BoE monetary policy meeting is concerned, the experts' projections range from "it should be interesting" to "as usual, a non event." The majority believes that there is a possibility of an extension of the asset purchase program by an additional 50 billion pounds. The upcoming BoE and ECB monetary policy decisions will be announced today at 12:00 and 12:45 GMT, respectively - FXstreet.com

08 NOVEMBER 2012: WALL STREET SINKS ON FISCAL CLIFF FEARS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The Dow Jones industrial lost more than 300 points in a sell-off on Wednesday one day after the reelection of president Obama. The major stock indexes were down over 2 percent in the wake of the US presidential elections as investors focus shifted to the looming “fiscal cliff” and the troubles with the Euro zone. The American indexes closed at their lowest levels since early August. The stock exchanges in Europe had experienced similar steep falls earlier on Wednesday with the debt crisis and new austerity measures in Greece back on the top of the agenda. Asian stocks also tumbled as US fiscal cliff looms.
Financial stocks and energy shares, two sectors that could face increased regulation after Barack Obama’s re-election, were hardest hit. Oil prices which started the day on a positive note fell 4 percent. Brent crude is trading at 107.80 and New York crude is back below USD 85 a barrel. After the elections considered as a major source of market uncertainty are finished, focus has turned to the “fiscal cliff”. Investors worry that if Democrats and Republicans are not able to agree on spending cuts and tax increases amounting to USD 600 billion, the overall economy will seriously suffer and derail the economic recovery.
The fall in the stock markets yesterday were spurred by comments from the President of the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi, stressing that also Germany started to feel the impact of the financial crisis. A corresponding report from the European Commission concluded that there barely would be any growth in the Euro zone next year. The reports dashed any hopes for short term improvement. Some analysts, however, saw the slide in stocks as a buying opportunity arguing that Europe’s troubles already were priced into markets. The Euro which made a strong rebound in the morning yesterday by bouncing back into the last weeks trading range between 1.28 and 1.30 versus dollar plunged hundred points and continues down in early Asian trade at 1.2750. Japanese yen is strengthened against the green back at 79,85. Precious metals have fluctuated heavily during the start of the week. After recovering from the low 1680 last week, Gold jumped to 1725 after the outcome of the elections, fell down to 1708 and is now trading at 1715.
In Athens Greek police fired teargas and water cannon at protesters hurling petrol bombs outside parliament in one of the biggest rallies in months against new austerity measures necessary to release bail-out funding from the International Monetary Fund, EU and the European Central Bank. Parliament approved the austerity measures by a razor thin margin in a heated debate into Thursday morning. The measures will make it easier to hire and fire workers. The junior ruling partner, the Democratic left, abstained, but New Democracy, the part of Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, and its Socialist Pasok allies were able to muster 153 out of 300 votes. 150 were necessary to secure the approval of spending cuts, tax hikes and weakening of labor’s rights.

ECB's Draghi: Growth momentum to remain weak in 2013
As expected, the ECB Governing Council decided to keep the main interest rate unchanged at a record low of 0.75% at their November monetary policy meeting. Speaking at the press conference following the meeting ECB head Mario Draghi commented on the considerations underlying the decision. The president suggested that inflation should stay above 2% throughout the rest of 2012 and fall below 2% in the course of of 2013, adding that “over the policy-relevant horizon, in an environment of modest growth in the euro area and well-anchored long-term inflation expectations, underlying price pressures should remain moderate.”
Mario Draghi said that growth momentum in the Eurozone would remain weak in 2013. He assured however that ECB's monetary policy was directed at stimulating growth in the area and that its readiness to activate the OMT program was boosting market confidence. He urged EU governments to continue reducing fiscal imbalances and applying structural reforms to strengthen growth potential in the area. He said that positive effects of the fiscal consolidation efforts so far could already be seen and that a quick implementation of the fiscal compact would further reassure markets - FXstreet.com

09 NOVEMBER 2012: GLOBAL MARKETS DOWN ON NEW UNCERTAINTIES
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Stocks fell in Europe, the United States and in morning trade in Asia and could be in line for more weakness as worries about Washington’s ability to find a timely solution to the “fiscal cliff” continue to dominate investor thinking. Along with new fears on how the Euro zone shall tackle its debt problems, global markets are set for a dumpy ride for the end of the year. As stock markets fall the Euro is under renewed pressure and trades at a two-month low. In spite of the Greek Parliament’s approval of new austerity measures yesterday, Greek bail-out funds are kept on hold. The German Minister of Finance stated that the approval of the austerity package was not enough to keep Greece in the Euro.
McDonald’s shares fell 2 percent after the world’ largest hamburger chain reported its first monthly drop in global sales since 2003. Another heavy weight, Apple, fell 3,6 % and is down 20 percent from its all-time high of USD 705 a share in September. The leading chips supplier, Qualcomm, was the exception gaining 4,4 percent on an otherwise dark session. Investors worry that if no deal is reached in Congress over some 600 billion in spending cuts and tax increases, the slow recovery seen will be reversed. A comprehensive agreement to avoid the “fiscal cliff” still seems possible. A more likely scenario is for political leaders to find a temporary fix to buy time until the new Congress and Obama are sworn in early next year. The prospect of haggling over the budget has deepened investors’ uncertainty and tends to explain market’s reactions over the last days.
The Euro was furtherly undermined after the European Central Bank, ECB, as expected kept rates on hold yesterday. The President of ECB, Mario Draghi, sounded downbeat on the euro zone economy and stated that he was ready to start new purchases of bond. Faced with overwhelming problems European leaders once again seem to be mostly occupied by buying time. This creates downside risks for the Euro which is likely for a new test of bottom levels between 1.20 and 1.25 seen some months ago. The announcement of European bond buying and expectations for continued monetary easing in Obama’s second term has strengthened gold which has jumped more than 50 dollars since the beginning of the week, trading at 1735.
Oil prices have stabilized and copper is up. Brent crude is at 107,58. China presented lower than expected inflation figures and other data that indicates a slow turn around in Chinese economy. The Chinese Communist party congress is simultaneously electing a new leadership, securing a smooth transition to a younger generation of leaders who will be faced with corruption, economic and political reforms as their major challenges.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 12 2012
Greece passes 2013 budget bill
After holding a vote on its 2013 national budget, the Greek government has passed the bill, one that includes additional cuts touching the most controversial areas of pensions, salaries and benefits. The reaction by the markets has been very subdued, with Euro ticking marginally higher. At present, worries are far greater on the prospects of Greece facing a default scenario this week, something that renowned papers like the Financial Times highlight on its front-cover. Greece should find a way to raise as much as €5bn in order to avoid default in a coupon of debt maturity, with the Troika and European paymasters, including Germany, still stuck in an impasse as to how to ease the country's debt burden, and with authorities still in disagreement over providing Greece the next aid tranche worth over €31.5 billion.
For the short term, the Financial Times reports in a weekend article that "the country’s debt management office has announced plans to cover the full amount through a treasury bill auction on Tuesday, but Greek banks expected to buy the issue can only raise about €3.5bn of collateral acceptable to the ECB, according to two senior Athens bankers" the paper reports. It is thought that in case of a shortfall in the capital raised, Greece will have to tap funds from a reserve for bank recapitalisation held by the Hellenic Financial Stability Fund, worth over €3 billion, as option of last resort-FXstreet.com

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Long direction: Fresh cross of moving averages might be a signal of possible correction ahead. Next resistance level is in focus at 1.2740 (R1). Rise above it would then be targeting to 1.2769 (R2) and 1.2797 (R3) in perspective. Short direction: Though, EURUSD might spend most of the day in a narrow range amid limited tier-one data flow. Our downside targets at 1.2679 (S2) and 1.2648 (S3) might expose if the downside extension below the support level at 1.2708 (S1) occur later on today

12 NOVEMBER 2012: FEAR OF “FISCAL CLIFF” DOMINATES MARKETS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
By demanding higher taxes for the rich as a condition for any budget agreement with the Republicans, President Barack Obama, has opened the fiscal battle that is going to dominate the first months of his second term. Strengthened by the elections Obama has invited Republican leaders to a first round of high-stakes negotiations to prevent the fiscal cliff – a mix of $ 600 billion in spending cuts and tax rises that will go into effect next year unless a deal is reached by 31st December. In spite of some more optimistic signals markets seem to have built in prospects for a no-deal. Combined with technical analysis the development points towards a substantial correction in shares and the security markets in the coming months.
Talks to prevent that scenario, which could tip the US into recession and have disastrous effects on the global economy, were put on ice during the election campaign. Sticking to his principle stand that individuals like himself with an annual income of more than $ 500 000, must take their fair share Obama has kept the door open for details in a compromise package that can open for new ideas. A senior Republican Senator voiced Sunday support for the idea that increased tax revenues from wealthier Americans ought to be a part of a compromise to avoid falling over the “fiscal cliff”.
Global markets are watching Washington’s steps with increased worries. The Asian markets continued to fall in to-day’s morning trade in spite of a smooth Chinese leadership transition and better industrial production, investment figures and retail sales coming out of China for October. The Chinese authorities also seem to have inflation under better control, and the GDP for 2012 seems to end around the predicted 7,6 percent. A shrinkage in the Japanese in last quarter with 0,9 % also weighed in on investor’s sentiment in Asia. The contraction suggested faltering global demand and weaker consumer spending, and might push the world’s third largest economy into mild recession.
The Greek parliament which last Thursday approved new austerity measures, adopted yesterday night a new tough budget for 2013. European Finance ministers are meeting in Brussels to-day to discuss unfreezing of lending to Greece. There is no agreement within the Euro zone on how to make the debt sustainable. It seems, however, that Athens will be given two more years to cut its debt. Greece’s adoption of a new budget has for now stopped the free fall of the Euro. Euro/USD is trading 0,2 % up at 1.2730. USD is gaining against JPY at 79,485, but is weaker towards Australian dollar, the New Zealand KIWI, Swedish and Norwegian krones. Oil prices have stabilized with Brent trading above 109. Gold and silver, the big winners last week, continue slightly up with Gold at 1735 and Silver 32,62.

Overall negative picture sees 1.2606, 50% of 1.2042/1.3170 rally in near-term focus, with any bounce seen as corrective, with immediate resistance at 1.2700 and more significant 1.2738/50, yesterday’s high / Fib 38.2% of 1.2875/1.2672 descend.

GBP/USD
Break below strong support at 1.5900 zone, Fibonacci support / daily Ichimoku cloud base, opens way for fresh weakness, with fresh slide approaching 200 day MA at 1.5848. Consolidative / corrective action above here is likely as 4h studies are extended, while hourly MACD shows bullish divergence. Immediate barriers lie at 1.5900/20 zone, round figure / yesterday’s high / Fib 38.2% of 1.6018/1.5857 decline, while regain of 1.5950/60 would avert immediate downside risk.

USD/JPY
The pair remains in a narrow consolidative range above 79.00 handle, following repeated Doji. However, the downside remains in focus, as the price action was capped by descending 20 day EMA at 79.63 and near-term studies hold negative tone.

U.S. ‘Fiscal Cliff’ likely to rock USD – Goldman Sachs
Looking ahead to December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2013, Goldman Sachs’ Global FX Monthy Analyst, says the upcoming U.S. ‘fiscal cliff’ episode has noteworthy potential to boost USD initially, followed by a sharp USD sell-off. Goldman Sachs explains: “The logic of this price action closely follows the pattern of markets temporarily losing confidence in the ability of polarised policymakers to compromise. During this period it may look as if the ‘fiscal cliff’ is becoming reality and that the economy could face a negative fiscal shock of up to 5% of GDP. The temporary negative response in cyclical assets would likely also trigger a broader USD rally.” Goldman Sachs continues: “After that, when policymakers do find a compromise, possibly helped by the market concerns reflected in cyclical asset weakness, risk sentiment could improve rapidly and the USD would weaken again.”
Busy day ahead for the London session A bunch of data releases will keep traders glued to the wires today. The show starts with French jobs data and current account at 07:45 GMT, followed 15 minutes later by Spanish CPI, Italian CPI at 09:00 GMT, and the highly followed German ZEW at 10:00 GMT, while the ECOFIN meeting, held in Brussels, will take place all day long. Bank of Portugal will also release its Autumn economic bulletin, with CPI figures for Portugal at 10:00 GMT. At 14:30 GMT Greek FinMin Stournaras will speak to EU lawmakers, while EU managing director of the Institute of International Finance Dallara will hold talks with senior government officials and private sector leaders regarding Greece and the Euro Area. In the sovereign debt auctions front, Italy will deliver 12 month bills, with 10 year bond yields standing barely above 5.03%, steady around the 5% figure for last 2 months, while Greece will try to sell 13-weeks T-Bill, as mentioned above.

Appreciation above it might enable next targets at 1.2722 (R2) and 1.2746 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: Medium term bias remains negative as both moving averages are pointing down. We expect retest of our support at 1.2672 (S1). Easing below it would suggest next targets at 1.2648 (S2) and 1.2624 (S3) in potential.

13 NOVEMBER 2012: EURO HITS 2-MONTH LOW ON GREECE
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The Euro dipped to a two-month low against the dollar. Euro/USD is trading at 1.2680 after Euro zone leaders and the International Monetary Fund, IMF, yesterday failed to agree on a long-term plan to reduce Greece’s debt. This has further delayed the disbursement of immediate aid to Athens. The Greek government is said to be running out of funds during this month. In an effort to secure new emergency funding the Greek parliament last Thursday approved new extensive austerity measures. On Sunday the Greek parliament adopted a strict austerity budget for 2013 seemingly to no avail.
Uncertainty over as well short-term financing and long term debt reduction has made the Euro tumble. After stabilizing inside a corridor between 1.28 and 1.30 for weeks, the Euro seems again in free fall. There is little chance that the Euro zone will desert Greece, but investors are frustrated by the lack of clarity. With no emergency funding in place, Greece plans to sell treasury bills during this week to refinance a 5 billion Euro issue maturing on Friday. The outcome of this auction is in the blue. Concerns on Greece’s ability to refinance would for sure put the Euro under new pressure. The Euro has been constantly falling since it peaked at 1.3140 in mid-October as the euphoria over the European Central Bank scheme to buy government bonds to help support Spain’s debt burden faded.
The European ministers agreed yesterday to grant Greece two more years to reach its budget target, but disagreed over who should shoulder the additional 33 billion Euro cost. Both Germany and Finland have to go back to their parliaments for final approval. The dollar index a measure of the dollar against six major currencies rose to its highest level since early September. Uncertainties on how US lawmakers shall tackle the “fiscal cliff” of spending cuts and higher tax rates may, however, come back and haunt the dollar. With the dollar also under pressure, JPY will again appear as a “safe haven” among currencies. USD/JPY is trading at 79,285.
Oil prices are under new downward pressure. Brent crude is tipping below USD 109 a barrel. New forecasts from IEA, The international Energy agency, IEA, is predicting that the United States would pass Saudi Arabia as an oil exporter by 2015 and become a net exporter of energy by 2020. Precious metals fell back yesterday consolidating heavy gains from last week-lows. Gold is at USD 1725 and Silver trades at 32.40.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 14 2012
Bild story on bundled aid payment for Greece boosts sentiment.
German newspaper Bild Zeitung published an article in which it claims that the Berlin is preparing a 44 billion euro aid payment for Greece, combined from three pending bailout tranches. When asked about the report, German Finance Minister's spokeswoman said that no decision has been taken on the Greek bailout. “Color me skeptical”, writes Mark Chandler, Global Head of Currency Strategy for BBH. “To give Greece such a large sum at once is counter to the underlying strategy of doling out the aid in tranches to provide assurances of compliance. This is tantamount to unilateral disarmament by the creditors. Second, three euro area members require parliamentary approval, Germany, Finland and the Netherlands. It it unlikely to receive support.” The Bild report boosted sentiment and the Euro rebounded off a two-month low against the greenback.
The Greek Public Debt Management Agency held a bond auction on Tuesday in order to roll over 5 billion euros of debt maturing on November 16. It sold 4.062 billion euros worth of 1-month and 3-month T-bills and the total amount should reach 5 billion if all non-competitive bids are included. 1-month T-bills were sold at an average yield of 3.95%, while 3-month T-bills yielded 4.2%, compared to 4.24% seen in October. The auction was given the green light by the ECB which had to raise the ceiling on the amount of T-bills so that Athens would be able to continue refinancing short-term debt -FXstreet.com

14 NOVEMBER 2012: HOME DEPOT AND CISCO WINNERS ON FLAT EXCHANGE
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Microsoft, Caterpillar and IBM were the big losers when stocks were sold off late in the session in New York last night. Retailers were the bright spot when Home Depot raised its outlook. Cisco which presented results after the closing bell, rose 6,8 percent after reporting revenues and earnings that beat analysts’ estimates. Home Depot, a home retail supplier, hit share prices levels not seen since April 2000, confirming greater optimism in the housing sector.
Concerns about the looming “fiscal cliff” kept investor activity subdued as lawmakers returned to Washington after November 6 elections. The markets are grappling with how a divided Congress will deal with a series of mandated tax hikes and spending cuts that will come into effect next year and threaten to take the largest world economy back into recession. Lawmakers were met by news that the US budget deficit continue to raise. The US Treasury said yesterday that October deficit was USD 120 billion larger than economists’ forecasts for a $ 114 million gap and up from $ 98 billion in October 2011. Growth in expenditures far outpaced rising receipts.
Asian shares and the Euro steadied on Wednesday morning, but lacked impetus for a decisive rebound threatened by the “fiscal cliff” and a delay in releasing more aid to debt-stricken Greece. The Euro/USD rebound from 1.260 on Tuesday and trades at 1.2720. USD/JPY stabilized around 79,50. MSCI’s broadest index of Asia Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0,3 percent after falling to a seven-week low in the previous session. Tokyo’s Nikkei edged up 0,1 percent after seven straight days in the red.

EU's Rehn: Spain has taken effective action on budget deficits in 2012 and 2013
EU Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn made a statement on Spain on Wednesday, regarding the country's deficit moves. According to the European Commission's assessment the Spanish government has taken effective action for 2012, 2013 as far as restoring sustainability of public finances is concerned. Nevertheless, it would fail to meet the deficit target for 2014.
Mr Rehn declared that Spain currently does not need additional measures and that the progress of its budget consolidation will be evaluated once again by the EU in February, by which time it might be necessary to introduce further measures. He added that he does not see the need for Rajoy's government making a bailout request in the nearest future. The EU Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner also acknowledged that Spain is currently undergoing difficult rebalancing of the economy and that its government and people are making great efforts to assure sustainability of the country’s finances.

15 NOVEMBER 2012: OIL PRICES JUMP ON GAZA TENSION
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Oil prices jumped one and half dollar yesterday on increased violence in the Middle East. Brent crude trading at 109,75. The Head of the military arm of the Hamas Palestinian authority in Gaza was killed along with 10 others in Israeli missile strikes. The new unrest in the region which comes on the top of the Syrian conflict and Iranian-Western tensions on Iran’s nuclear program added to selling pressure on Wall Street. Both Nasdaq and Dow Jones fell substantially. Hardest hit was Bank of America, General Electric, Boeing and Caterpillar. Facebook stock jumped 12,6 percent as a share lock-up expires. Facebook has fallen more than 50 % percent since the IPO introduction.
In his first press conference after reelection president Barack Obama outlined a compromise on debt/taxes, a new immigration law and renew focus on climate as his immediate priorities. By pledging to raise taxes on the wealthy, Obama set up a drawn-out fight over the fiscal cliff, budget cuts combined with tax hikes. The deadline for reaching a deal between Republicans and Democrats Congress is set to 31st December. With talks over solving the “fiscal cliff” in early stages, investors are reacting to the uncertainty by shedding positions. This points towards a last minute cliffhanger solution. In the meantime the market is going to get punched every day as experienced on Wall Street yesterday.
Without a deal a series of mandated tax hikes and spending cuts will start to take effect early next year. That could push the US economy into recession. Taxes on capital gains and dividends might rise as party of the negotiations. This shall probably push investors to sell in 2012 to pay lower taxes on their gains. Uncertainty inside the Euro zone with the bail-out tranches for Greece still in the air, add to the downside pressure in the equity markets. With the whole Middle Eastern region in deep problems with the Palestinian – Israeli conflict flaring up again, market sentiments remain subdued. Israel is threatening an invasion of Gaza as a following up of the killings. Egypt has recalled its ambassador from Israel in response.
Xi Jinping was yesterday elected new party chief of the Chinese Communist party and received a strong mandate to deal with problems ranging from corruption to economic uncertainty. Asian stocks fell as investors reacted to drawn-out negotiations the “fiscal cliff”. Japanese equities bucked the trend as a sharp slide in the Yen lifted exporters’ shares. The MSCI index fell 0,9 % as did the indexes in Australia and Hong Kong. Copper is weaker and precious metals stabile. Gold at 1725 and Silver at 32,60.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 16 2012
Eurozone officially in recession
Third quarter GDP data for the Eurozone published yesterday revealed that the area has once again slipped into recession. According to Eurostat Q3 GDP was down by 0.1%, which is the second consecutive quarterly decline. Only the German and French economies expanded, both by 0.2%. Martin van Vliet from ING comments: “GDP figures clearly demonstrate that the Eurozone economy as a whole is in desperate need of macroeconomic stimulus. With policymakers seemingly reluctant to engineer a coordinated pull-back from fiscal austerity, more monetary stimulus and a weaker currency is likely to be needed to put Eurozone back on a path of sustained growth.”
ECB Governing Council member Luc Coene declared in the European morning that Spain should urgently seek EU aid. European Commissioner for Economic and Monetary Affairs Olli Rehn, who spoke later in the day, assured that the solution to the Greek problem requires a combination of measures, providing the principal amount of its debt does not change.-FXstreet.com

16 NOVEMBER 2012: BEAR MOOD DO NOT RECEDE
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The American indexes once again finished trading session in a red zone. Frankly speaking, we have seen so much negative information yesterday that it was possible to expect even more considerable falling. The main headache for investors still is a fiscal cliff.
Today the president of the United States will meet congressmen, and in common they will try to find a way out of current situation. Might be markets will get an occasion to grow up following the results of a meeting. However yesterday’s fears were not limited only to a general picture in the markets. Right after an election of the president in the United States statistics started to spoil. Yesterday was presented very bad data on a primary requests for an unemployment benefit in the USA. Growth of requests made 78 thousand, even slightly more than 20 thousand were expected, the total number of requests made 439 thousand. It is a lot, and raises a reasonable question that so strongly changed in the employment market literally for few weeks.
Besides macroeconomic data there was a weak reporting from Wal-Mart. Business of the largest retailer, many investors consider, as an advancing indicator. Nevertheless, despite this negative, the American markets lost within only 0,2-0,3%.
The trading in the commodities market is stable; Brent grows to 108.1 dollars for barrel, NYMEX decreases to 85.6 dollars for barrel. A favorable factor for growth of the oil prices is the statistics which came yesterday on the fuel market in the USA: so, stocks of crude oil grew to 1.09 million barrels contrary to expectations in 2 million; reduction of stocks of oil products made 2.54 million barrels - was expected 1 million. Continuing conflict in the Middle East will also support growth of oil prices. According to the information from HAMAS, the Air Force of Israel struck the next series of blows to the Gaza this morning.
Precious metals are weak this morning, Silver is losing more than 1% and traded at 32.34, Platinum at 1560.59, Gold is stable at 1712.

ECB's Asmussen calls for a 2-year funding extension on Greece
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Joerg Asmussen, member of the European Central Bank, told German broadcaster ZDF over the weekend, EU leaders should agree on a 2-year loan extension for Greece, with any additional funding plan to be decided at a later stage, confirming the broadly-held view within the EU of 'kicking the can down the road', a position not marrying too well with IMF Director Christine Lagarde, who has been repeatedly calling for a long-standing comprehensible plan.
For today, EUR related economic agenda for the London session ahead looks soft, with only Italian industrial production at 09:00 GMT. However, several conferences in the EU will take place in parallel, ahead of tomorrow's key Eurogroup meetings. The special attention will be headlines from EU Commissioner Barnier and Spain EcoMin De Guindos, speaking at the EU conference on financial stability and the single market at 08:30 GMT. Also Deutsche Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann speech in Frankfurt at the same time will attract market's attention. In the EZ sovereign debt auctions front, France will deliver Treasury bills at 12:45 GMT, with 10 year bond yields stable around the 2% figure, last at 2.08%.

19 NOVEMBER 2012: ASIA UP AS USD/JPY TRADES AT SEVEN-MONTH LOW
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
USD/JPY fell to a seven-month low against the dollar trading at 81,166 as Asian shares rose, boosted by a more positive tone in US equities last week and on expectations that next month’s Japanese elections will bring a new stimulus friendly government. MSCIs broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0,6 percent, recovering from Friday’s nine-week low. The energy sector outperformed on mounting supply concerns following the development in Gaza with Israeli air strikes and Hamas rocket attacks underpinning oil prices. Brent crude trades at 109,50. NYMEX is at 87,57.
Most markets under-performed last week. There are, however, hopes that US negotiations around the fiscal situation may progress and improve prospect for the stock markets. Japan’s Nikkei surged 2,2 percent Friday and bucked the downtrend in broad Asia. It has extended the gains this morning. Nikkei is 1,3 percent up and trades at a two-month high helped a weaker Yen and expectations that 16th December elections shall bring a new government ready to call for stimulus and a more aggressive easing from the Central Bank of Japan.
Hope that US politicians would find a common ground to steer clear of the “fiscal cliff”, boosted US stocks on Friday. European stocks, however, sank to its lowest level seen since May on US “fiscal cliff” concerns and the euro zone debt crisis. US treasury yields fell to its lowest levels in over two months on Friday as skepticism over the US budget talks drew safe-haven bids. Lawmakers, however, hinted at a possible budget compromise involving budget cuts and tax revenues.
The dollar is still strong after hitting a two month high in early Friday trading against a basket of six major currencies. The drop in Gold helped precious metals. Gold is trading 10 dollar up at 1723. Silver is 32,60 after dipping below 32 on Friday. The Euro rose to 1.2772 on Friday on expectations that the International Monetary Fund, IMF and euro zone finance ministers shall agree on how to make Greece’s debt more manageable. A bundled aid package to avert a Greek default may create a relief rally in the Euro. Euro/USD is at present trading at 1.2762. The short and medium term outlook for the Euro is, however, still bearish.

EUR/USD
Maintains near-term positive tone after reversal from 1.4247 high found support at 1.4020. Yesterday’s breach of 1.4218, previous high, has so far reached 1.4232, just ahead of 1.4247, 22 Mar lower top, clearance of which is required for fresh attempt at 1.4280, Nov 2010 peak and major trendline resistance. Current correction is consolidating above 1.4150, with further easing not ruled out, and higher low above 1.41 seen to maintain bulls. Loss of 1.41, however, will delay and re-expose 1.4050/20 for test.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 20 2012
Moody's downgrades France to Aa1 from Aaa
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Moody's has downgraded France's government bond rating to Aa1 from Aaa, maintains negative outlook. Moody's decision to downgrade France and maintain the negative outlook reflects the following:
From Moody's: 1.) France's long-term economic growth outlook is negatively affected by multiple structural challenges, including its gradual, sustained loss of competitiveness and the long-standing rigidities of its labour, goods and service markets. 2.) France's fiscal outlook is uncertain as a result of its deteriorating economic prospects, both in the short term due to subdued domestic and external demand, and in the longer term due to the structural rigidities noted above. 3.) The predictability of France's resilience to future euro area shocks is diminishing in view of the rising risks to economic growth, fiscal performance and cost of funding. France's exposure to peripheral Europe through its trade linkages and its banking system is disproportionately large, and its contingent obligations to support other euro area members have been increasing. Moreover, unlike other non-euro area sovereigns that carry similarly high ratings, France does not have access to a national central bank for the financing of its debt in the event of a market disruption.

Downwards scenario: While next support is placed at 1.5907 (S1), decline below it would put in focus next target at 1.5894 (S2) and any further depreciation would then be limited to 1.5882 (S3) intraday.

20 NOVEMBER 2012: BUDGET TALK’S OPTIMISM SPURS WALL STREET RALLY
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Stocks rallied for a second consecutive session on Monday after budget talks created optimism that Democrats and Republicans would be able to tackle the fiscal crunch and avoid tipping over the “fiscal cliff”. The optimism spilled over to the Asian markets where the Nikkei share average in Tokyo extended its rise into a fifth day in morning trades. The gains were limited by profit taking and Bank of Japan’s (BOJ) awaited policy decision later in the session. It is expected that BOJ will keep policy unchanged. The Asian-Pacific index, MSCI, rose 0,6 percent.
The dollar was steady against a basket of currencies moving away from the two-month high reached on Friday. Precious metals jumped 3 percent on Monday on the dollar’s retreat. Gold reached 1735 and silver trade up close to a dollar on 33.20. USD/JPY is trading at 81.25. Oil prices have increased substantially on tensions in the Middle East. Brent crude reached its highest price level for weeks trading above USD 111 a barrel. NYMEX, New York crude, is sniffing on the 90 level.
Wall Street stocks climbed almost 2 percent extending a rally started on Friday. The rise reflected investors’ view that US lawmakers will be able to reach a compromise to avert USD 600 billion in tax increases and spending cuts due to start in January. This so called “fiscal cliff” threatens to send the US back into recession.
Prospects that Greece will get a lifeline to stay solvent also helped boost markets. The international rating agency, Moody’s, downgraded France’s government bond rating to A1 and kept a negative outlook on the country’s uncertain fiscal outlook and deteriorating economic prospects. The downgrade put the Euro under pressure. Euro/USD fell from a two week high on 1.2810 on Monday to 1.2777 in early Asian trade. It has regained and trades at present on 1.2796.
The Euro zone finance ministers are expected to give a tentative go-ahead for the disbursement of 44 billion euro in emergency loans to Greece later today. Differences between the finance ministers and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on how to tackle the Greek crisis, however, remain, and a positive decision shall in no sway be taken for granted.

EU Finance Ministers fail to agree on Greece; Talks to resume on Monday
The European finance ministers failed to reach any conclusive decision on Greece after a 10+ hours meeting in Brussels, which came to a conclusion well into the night at around 4am. Details will not be released and the press conference was canceled. Luke Baker, Reuters bureau chief in Brussels, notes: "After more than 10 hours of meeting, German Finance Minister Schaeuble said euro zone finance ministers couldn't reach an agreement on Greece. Euro Finance Chiefs will continue talks on Monday..."
Earlier on the Asian session, Reuters was out reporting on a Eurogroup document laying out details on Greek debt, which is seen at debt to GDP of 144% in 2020, 133% in 2022, 111% in 2030, noted Mr. Baker. Current Greek debt level stands at 170% of GDP. Bloomberg reported that target of reaching debt sustainability may be postponed to 2022. One of the measures under discussion is suspending for 10 years interest payments on loans provided to Greece by the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF), Reuters reported citing an unnamed official. It is thought that even combined elements "would still fail to reduce the overall debt-to-GDP ratio to 120% by 2020, the level the IMF has deemed as 'sustainable' " Bloomberg notes. Speculation is that IMF may remove itself from any Greek bailout programs if the 120% threshold can not be reached.-Fxstreet.com

21 NOVEMBER 2012: EURO FALLS ON INCONCLUSIVE GREEK TALKS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The Euro/USD is falling 50 points to 1.2757 after Euro finance ministers and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) failed to reach agreement on a Greek bail-out package. While the EU seems to have been willing to extend with two years the deadline for carrying through austerity measures, IMF was sticking to 2020. Without a consensus emergency aid cannot be disbursed to Greece.
The inconclusive talks helped destroy the positive investor’s sentiment which has been built up over the last days. The Head of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke also talked US stock markets down when he yesterday stated that the Federal Reserve could do nothing to soften the “fiscal cliff”. Dow Jones fell within minutes more than 100 points upon Bernanke’s statement. He added, however, that 2013 might be a bright year for markets if Congress is able to find a compromise between budget cuts and tax hikes. Both Dow Jones and Nasdaq recovered and ended the session flat.
Hewlett Packard, one of the bedrock companies of Silicon Valley, and for decades seen as synonymous with technical excellence and innovation, stunned markets with an alleged massive accounting scandal at its British software unit, Autonomy. Serious accounting improprieties came to light after a whistle-blower come forward after the ouster of one of the companies top executives.

EUR/USD
Bears took control of the near-term outlook, as the pair failed to sustain gains above 1.2800, 200 day MA and fell sharply to 1.2735, Monday’s opening levels. The reversal, signaled by Doji candle, retraced over 50% of 1.2660/1.2828 recovery rally. Hourly indicators are deeply in the negative territory and 4h chart studies building bearish momentum that keeps near-term focus at the downside. Strong support zone lies at 1.2720/00, Fib 61.8% / tentative bull trendline off 1.2660 and daily Ichimoku cloud base, seen as next downside target. Immediate resistance stands at 1.2764, yesterday’s low, ahead of 20/55 day EMA’s at 1.2785 and key near-term barriers at 1.2800/28.

GBP/USD
Corrective rally off 1.5826, 15 Nov low, was capped by daily Ichimoku cloud base at 1.5935, with subsequent dip to 1.5882, retracing 505 of initial 1.5826/1.5935 rally. This could be seen as corrective, as 4h studies still hold in the positive territory and hourly indicators start to point higher, after breaking below their midlines. However, regain of 1.5935 is required to confirm higher low and resume near-term recovery, towards 1.5959, Fib 38.2% and 1.6000, round figure / trendline resistance. On the downside, violation of 1.5868, Fib 61.8%, would put near-term bulls on hold.

USD/JPY
Near-term bulls remain fully in play, as the pair resumes rally that was interrupted by 81.00/58 consolidation and breaks above our initial target at 82.00. Immediate upside target lies at 82.20, May highs and 83.32, weekly 150 day MA, to possibly open way towards psychological 83.00 barrier. However, overextended conditions on both, 1 and 4h chart, with appearance of 4h RSI /MACD bearish divergence, could limit gains in the near-term. Previous high at 81.58, offers initial support, ahead of 81.00, consolidative range floor that should contain any stronger reversal.

USD/CHF
Bounce on failed attempt to break below important 0.9400 support, also 200 day MA, provides temporary relief, as the price jumps to 0.9456 so far. Retracement of over 61.8% of 0.9489/0.9390 fall, turns hourly structure positive, however, failure to regain previous high at 0.9489, would risk lower top and fresh weakness, as 4h indicators still hold in the negative territory. Break above 0.9489 to re-focus key near-term barriers at 0.9500/11, otherwise, near-term focus would shift back towards 0.9400.

22 NOVEMBER 2012: GREEK EXPECTATIONS TAKES EURO HIGHER
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
German Chancellor Angela Merkel breathed new life into the Euro yesterday when she stated that a deal on the Greek emergency package was still within reach when Euro finance ministers meet on Monday. The Euro hit a 6-1/2 month high against the yen which continue to fall on expectations of more forceful monetary easing in Japan. Euro/USD is also stronger trading at 1.2844.
Investors initially dumped the Euro after Euro finance ministers and IMF, International Monetary Fund, failed to reach a compromise on release of emergency aid for Greece Tuesday night. Merkel’s comments turned the downward trend around. Euro last traded up 1 percent at 105,94 yen. The dollar has over the last seven trading sessions gained 3,9 percent against yen. USD/JPY stands at present at 82,38 giving Japanese exporters a welcomed boost. Yen is broadly falling against other currencies including the Australian dollar.
Analysts are expecting the yen to continue weakening into the Japanese elections in the middle of December. Bank of Japan’s (BOJ) firm intention for asset purchases and forceful monetary easing makes it likely that the yen shall remain vulnerable in the near term.
After relatively quiet equity sessions in Western Europe and the US Asian stocks rose Thursday morning after a survey showed that China’s manufacturing sector in November expanded for the first time in 13 months. Along with US factory data it raised optimism that the global growth slowdown is turning. MSCI broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan raised 0,8 percent to a one week high.
Market sentiments were also boosted by the truce between Hamas and Israel on Gaza. Brent crude trades above USD 110 a barrel. Precious metals and commodities show a firmer upward trend. Gold stands at 1730 and silver trades at 33,40.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 22 2012
Market pricing Greece deal by Monday
Judging by the reaction of the market after EU authorities failed to reach a deal on Greece, hopes that by Monday leaders will resolve the technicalities and find a way to unblock the next disbursement of bailout money to Greece, continue to run high, and so does the Euro. There are varies option on the table, with the WSJ citing the three most likely, which include a debt buybacks program, loan interest cuts to 0.25%, which may potentially save the country over 44 billion euros, and a return of SMP profits. The German leader Angela Merkel advocated after the last EcoFin meeting that they could beef up the EFSF funds by 10 billion euros to support an activation of a Greece buy back program. Meanwhile, EU leaders are scheduled to have talks today about budget talks, with the market focusing on the area's spending plan. Headline over this meeting will hardly move the Euro.
Eurozone finance ministers are discussing options to bring down Greece's debt to 120% of GDP in 2020. One of the measures under discussion is suspending for 10 years interest payments on loans provided to Greece by the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF), Reuters reported citing an unnamed official. Another measure could be to buy back Greek debt held by private financial institutions, offering 30% of its value, while a third step would be to cut the interest on €53 billion of bilateral loans to Greece, to 25 basis points from the current 150 basis points.

Upwards scenario: EURUSD tested positive side today and gains 0.14 %. Local high, formed today acts now as next barrier for further price appreciation.

23 NOVEMBER 2012: GOOD WEEK FOR ASIAN SHARES AND EURO
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Stock indexes continued to rise Friday morning as Asian shares were on course for a weekly gain of more than 2 percent. The Asia Pacific MSCI rose 0,4 percent and reached the highest level seen in two months after manufacturing surveys from China and the United States raised hopes for an improving global growth outlook. Japan and US were closed due to public holidays and Thanksgiving.
EURO/USD is trading at 1.2887 with the Euro enjoying a one percent lift since last Friday’s close. This in spite of yesterday’s data pointing to the Euro zone sliding into its deepest recession since 2009. The Euro has, however, been helped by optimism that a funding deal for Greece will ultimately be found when euro finance ministers meet in Brussels on Monday.
USD/JPY eased 0,1 percent to 82,39 pulling back from Thursday’s high of 82.84 which is the dollar’s strongest level since early April. The dollar has gained 3,7 percent versus yen over the last two weeks. The yen has been weakened on expectations that the Bank of Japan shall implement more drastic monetary stimulus.
Commodity markets were quiet with oil, copper and precious metals staying course to end the week higher than they started. Brent crude is trading at USD 110, 25 and Gold is flat around 1730. Last day’s markets have been subdued by Thanksgiving and enters a new week once again with major focus on the debt crisis in Europe. While a lot of ink has been spilled on the US fiscal cliff the biggest challenge for the global economy rests with the euro zone.

Greece edges towards a debt deal; IMF lowers demands
Greece may soon breathe a sigh of relief, as a deal with the Troika looks closer, according to Greek-based paper ekathimeini, citing Finance Minister Yannis Stournaras who suggests only 10 billion euros stand in the way of a deal.From ekathimeini: "Sources said that another 8 to 10 billion euros was needed to meet the target." the Greek paper also reports that "the IMF has accepted that Greek debt will not meet its target of 120 percent of GDP in 2020 and is willing for this to change to 124 percent in the same year."
German Chancellor Angela Merckel said after the meeting she doubts an agreement will be reached on EU budget this week, and will likely need another few sessions of negotiations. She added positions are too far apart for now. Meanwhile, according to an official statement by the European Council, Yves Mersch has been appointed to the executive board of the European Central Bank for a term of eight years as from 15 December. He will succeed José Manuel González-Páramo, who completed his term of office on 31 May.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 24 2012
Greek deal hopes and China's improving growth momentum lift market mood
Risky assets advanced this week as economic indicators showed improving growth momentum in China and the US, while the economic recession did not intensify in the eurozone. Optimism about an imminent agreement on a debt-reduction package for Greece also contributed to improve market sentiment. Spain took advantage of more positive market mood and it managed to sell EUR8.8bn in government bonds and Treasury bills, helping sentiment toward risk assets. In this context, negative impact of the French credit rating downgrading was quite mute. Peripheral risk premia narrowed notably across the board this week. Notwithstanding the safe-haven yields rose, the reaction in the short-end of the German yield curve was quite limited. At the end of the week, oil prices fell due to ceasefire agreed between Israel and Hamas, reducing one of the global market headwinds. Finally, Japanese yen is being dragged by expectation of Japanese Liberal Democratic Party expectation to win elections on December 16, which backs an ease monetary policy
Today's market headlines will be almost entirely dominated by the EU FinMin meeting, with reports over the weekend suggesting a Greece debt deal is still up in the air. On Saturday, finance ministers held a teleconference, which failed to clear up the picture in this regard. The Greek-based paper Kathimerini, citing sources familiar with the talks, suggests an agreement may not be inked until December 3, while portals like Reuters sound more optimistic.-FXstreet.com

26 NOVEMBER 2012: EURO RISES ON GREEK HOPES
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The Euro hit a seven-month high against the yen and held a one-month peak versus dollar when the trading week opened in Asia this morning. The Euro was supported by hopes that Greece will finally secure more emergency loans when EU Finance ministers meet in Brussels today. Euro/USD is trading at 1.2963 after reaching 1.2969 on Friday bringing its weekly gain to 1,75 percent and above the 1.2945 level which it began 2012.
Asian shares inched up on Monday on hopes that Greece can avoid a near term bankruptcy. A regional Spanish vote favoring separatist parties capped gains. The stock futures for US suggest a soft opening while European futures are falling. The Asian Pacific index, MSCI, rose 0,2 percent marking advance for the sixth consecutive day. There is market optimism on the euro area’s ability to reach a deal on Greece, but worries about the vote of Catalonian independence from Spain and its implications for Spain’s austerity measures and bond rates remain high.
Oil, commodities and precious metals saw gains on a weaker dollar last week. Brent crude is trading above USD 111 a barrel in Asia, and gold surpassed the 1750 level on Friday as central banks boost reserves. Both gold and silver fell somewhat back in early Asian trade. Gold dipped below 1750 and silver trades at 34,05. Gold saw its five week high helped by a weaker dollar and investor confidence. Both pension funds. Sovereign wealth funds and private investors have been buying gold along with central banks in Brazil, Russia, Mexico, India, South Korea and Thailand. The buying has also been prompted by devaluation concerns of major currencies.

27 NOVEMBER 2012: EURO MINISTERS FINALLY AGREE ON GREEK DEBT
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Euro zone finance ministers and the International Monetary Fund, IMF, finally reached a deal on Monday to reduce Greece’s debt. After 12 hour of negotiations Greece’s international lenders agreed on measures to reduce Greek debt by 40 billion euro, cutting the debt ratio between debt and GDP (gross domestic product) to 124 percent by 2020. Urgently needed loans to keep the bankrupt economy afloat were simultaneously released. In a significant new pledge ministers committed themselves to lower Greece’s debt below 110 percent by 2022. This is so far the most explicit recognition that some loans have to written off from 2016 when Greece is supposed to reach a primary budget surplus.
After two weeks of haggling, markets reacted with relief on the aid package. Stock markets in Asia continued up. The MSCI index for the south Pacific region outside Japan gained 0,6 percent, and the Euro/USD is trading at its highest level in weeks at 1.2985, marginally up from yesterday. Upon the release of the news from Greece, the euro reached 1.3010. Also the Australian dollar is trading at its highest level in two months versus dollar. USD/JPY was falling in early Asian trade, but has recovered at 82,15. Dow Jones was down and Nasdaq marginally up yesterday waiting for the outcome from Brussels.
Oil prices are steady. New York crude (NYMEX) is USD 88 a barrel. Brent crude is 111,04. Commodity prices are up helped by news on big infrastructural programs in China. Gold keeps around 1750 after reaching 1754 on Friday. Silver is slightly up in the morning trade in Asia at 34,20.
The agreement in Brussels has given the market a breathing spell. Investors focus is now likely to shift back to another major concern hanging over the markets, the looming US fiscal crisis. Republicans asked on Monday president Barack Obama to detail long term spending cuts to help solve the countries fiscal crisis. The Republicans are holding firm against any income tax rate increases for the wealthy that Democrats seek. If a compromise deal on the budget drags out, new focus on the “fiscal cliff” would for sure create nervousness and dampened investors risk appetite.
With big funds winding down their positions ahead of the new year-end, many analysts see it unlikely with major changes in the currency markets. The euro which has gained two percent over the last days is not set for major new gains in the short term. Any further rise in the Euro will likely be countered by selling to cap the euro’s upside. USD/JPY has fallen considerably over the last weeks and no major development is expected before the Japanese elections in mid-December and an eventual new government’s likely monetary easing.

EUR/USD
The Euro has cracked psychological 1.3000 barrier on a spike to 1.3007, seen overnight, as a part of broader recovery from 1.2660, 13 Nov low. Positive sentiment favors the upside, as clearance of 1.3020, 25/31 Oct double-top and Fib 76.4% of 1.3137/1.2660 is required to confirm break and expose 1.3070, possibly 1.3100 on a break. Near-term structure remains positive, however, extended 4h studies warn of possible stall. Immediate support lies at 1.2942, ahead of 1.2900, round figure and more significant 1.2830 zone, loss of which would revive bears.
Res: 1.3007, 1.3020, 1.3050, 1.3070
Sup: 1.2942, 1.2913, 1.2900, 1.2874

GBP/USD
The pair maintains positive tone, holding at 1.6050, yesterday’s high, after corrective easing found footstep at 1.6000 zone and 55 day EMA. Clear break above 1.6050 is required to resume rally from 1.5920 higher base, for possible test of 1.6100, round figure / Fib 76.4% of 1.6174/1.5826 / daily Ichimoku cloud top. Failure to do so, however, would increase risk of reversal, signaled by yesterday’s Doji and signal possible double-top formation, with break below initial 1.600/1.5977 supports, required to confirm. Overbought 4h chart conditions and hourly MACD / RSI bearish divergence, support the notion.
Res: 1.6050, 1.6060, 1.6092, 1.6100
Sup: 1.6019, 1.6000, 1.5977, 1.5946

USD/JPY
Near-term bulls came back to play after the pair found ground just under psychological 82.00 support and bounce retraced nearly 50% of 82.83/81.84 downleg at 82.31. Hourly structure is gaining momentum and sees the upside favored, however, still weak tone, seen on 4h chart, requires improvement, seen on regain of 82.45, Fib 61.8% and tentative bear-trendline off 82.83 that will open way towards pivotal 82.61, yesterday’s high. Otherwise, lower top and fresh extension lower that would initially target 81.81 and 81.60 would signal further retracement of 79.06/82.83 rally.

USD/CHF
The pair remains under pressure, as series of lower lows, with the latest one posted overnight at 0.9253, confirm bearish stance and focus key near-term support at 0.9213. Hourly studies show bears fully in play, while 4h studies, entering oversold zone, may signal delay, seen on possible mild corrective bounce. Initial 0.9300 barrier, reinforced by descending 20 day EMA, is expected to cap for now. On the downside, break below 0.9213, would signal an end of two-month consolidative phase and open fresh bear-leg, as a part of broader descend from 0.9970, 24 July yearly peak.
Res: 0.9280, 0.9300, 0.9335, 0.9355

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 27 2012
More funding for Greece finally approved
The EU reached a deal to reduce Greek debt to 124 % of the GDP in 2020 through a package of extra steps amounting 20 % of GDP, that was the headline from Reuters earlier in the Asian session. Reporters, however, had to arm themselves with patience until concrete details out of Brussels came out. Once the Eurogroup press conference was on past 1am Brussels time, Jean-Claude Juncker, president of the Eurogroup, provided the first remarks to the press, saying "today we reached political agreement on next disbursement to Greece", adding that despite has been a difficult decision, "I am complimenting the Greek gov't, I am complimenting the Greek parliament".
The Eurogroup will formally decide on the disbursement December 13 if national parliaments approve tonight's deal. For now, what has been written in the draft document is that Greece aid disbursement of around €44 bln will be provided under 3 tranches. The first €34.4 bln loan is expected by mid December once green light from parliaments is given, and through Q1 2013 the rest, subject to implementation of its ongoing austerity program.-FXstreet.com

OECD: EU debt crisis a primary threat to world economy
The OECD released its twice-yearly Economic Outlook on Tuesday in which it cut the global growth forecast and warned that the Eurozone debt crisis is a greater threat to the world economy than the looming US fiscal cliff. "After five years of crisis, the global economy is weakening again," OECD's chief economist Pier-Carlo Padoan warned. "The risk of a new major contraction can't be ruled out." The Paris based organization reduced its global growth forecast for 2012 from 3.4% seen in May to 2.9%, and for 2013 from 4.2% to 3.4%. It also suggested that the Eurozone economy should start growing again in 2013 and that the US should witness a expansion of 2% next year and of around 3% in 2014. An intensification of the debt crisis in the Eurozone could however push the area into a profound recession and damage US recovery.
The OECD urged governments not to cut spending too much, as it hurts growth. Central banks in the Eurozone, Japan, China and India were advised to boost stimulus to prop up their ailing economies. The organization also allowed for the possibility of Greece not being able to strictly adhere to its reform plan, should recession deepen more than expected. “The agreed consolidation measures should be put in place, but if growth proves lower than assumed in the government's fiscal plans, then the automatic stabilisers should be allowed to operate, even if this means missing the set targets,” the OECD stated.-FXstreet.com

28 NOVEMBER 2012: FOCUS SHIFT BACK TO “FISCAL CLIFF”
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Budget talks and the “fiscal cliff” is back in focus after leaving the euro finance ministers agreement on Greek debt cuts on the agenda in the very start of the week. The euro’s short won gains against the USD were eaten up during yesterday. Euro/USD is trading at 1.2939 after falling fifty basis points in the afternoon of yesterday. The Japanese Yen strengthens versus dollar. After USD/JPY has traded in the interval between 82.15 to 82,65, yen is this morning below 82 at 81,95. Asian shares ended a seven-day winning streak this morning. The share index for Asia-Pacific stocks, MSCI, fell 0,5 % and commodities eased as lack of progress in talks on US budget threatened to threw the US economy back in recession.
President Barack Obama launched yesterday a public relations push for his bid to raise taxes on wealthy Americans. US lawmakers remained, however deadlocked over dramatic year-end tax increases and spending cuts known as the “fiscal cliff”. Obama met with small business leaders in the White House. They urged Obama to keep the tax cuts for the middle class to increase consumption and job creation. The US tycoon, Warren Buffet, simultaneously, called on the rich to pay more and proposed a minimum tax on 30 % on incomes between USD 1 and 10 million and 35 % on incomes above.
Senate majority leader Harry Reid expressed last night disappointment over modest progress in the budget negotiations. The remarks had US stocks to slide. Dow Jones lost 0,69 percent and Nasdaq 0,30. Statistics could on the other hand report on record high Thanksgiving sales and the highest US-consumer optimism in 5 years. The Shanghai composite Index slid 0,7 % and the Chinese stock markets to its lowest in nearly four years extending earlier losses and closing below 2000 points for the first time since January 2009. The weak Chinese stock market along with increasing doubts over US ability to resolve the fiscal crisis have over the last weeks strengthened demand for sovereign debt. Japanese government bond futures rise to a 9 and half year high.
Digesting the Greek debt deal comments on Twitter dismissed it as another exercise in kicking the can down the road. A degree of kicking is obvious. There is, however a critical element in the new deal which goes further than any step taken so far to get Greece back on its feet. There is an implicit understanding that Greece will undergo some form of official-sector debt restructuring with euro zone countries at some point in the future forgiving a portion of Greece’s debt. This sort of last-ditch measure is usually reserved for impoverished states in Africa and Latin America. German finance minister Wolfgang Schaeuble came close to acknowledging such an eventuality on a later press conference.
Oil prices are down a dollar since yesterday. Brent crude is trading at 110. Gold is also down from 1750 to 1741 breaking the good upward trend seen over the last days. Silver at USD 34 is also down.

EU gives the go-ahead to Spanish bank restructuring plan
The European Commission announced on Wednesday its approval of the plans to restructure Spain's four nationalized banks: Bankia, Nova Caixa Galicia, Catalunya Caixa and Banco de Valencia. Vice President of the European Commission responsible for Competition Policy Joaquín Almunia said in the European morning that the injection of 37 billion euros of the bank rescue would require a 60% reduction in the size of the nationalized financial institutions by 2017.
Joaquín Almunia informed that during the negotiations with Spanish authorities and the banks in question it was established that the recapitalization funds would be distributed as follows: 18 billion euros for Bankia, 9 billion for Catalunya Caixa, 5.5 billion for Nova Caixa Galicia and 4.5 billion for Banco de Valencia. The four nationalized financial institutions should abandon conceding loans for high risk activities and should transfer 45 billion euros of toxic assets to the newly created bad bank. Catalunya Caixa and Nova Caixa Galicia are expected to be sold before 2017.-FXstreet.com

29 NOVEMBER 2012: BIPARTISAN STATEMENTS TURN MARKETS AROUND
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
“The fiscal cliff” seems over the last couple of days to have taken over completely as the dominant theme in the market. Statements on Tuesday from the Democratic Senate leader, Henry Reid, expressing disappointing progress towards a budget compromise with the Republicans had the markets to tumble. Yesterday it was the other way around. When president Obama expressed hope for a deficit deal by Christmas markets made a sharp U-turn. Dow Jones and Nasdaq which had started in red territory, ended 0,83 and 0,81 percent up with Hewlett Packard, Chevron, American Express and Pfizer showing the way as cracks seemed to surface in the Republican front against any tax rises. Stocks rallied when House Speaker and leading Republican, Joe Boehner, stated that a compromise was possible to avoid the “fiscal cliff”.
Whether these remarks reflect the reality of the negotiations is another story. The “fiscal cliff” of budget cuts and tax hikes dominate the discussion and influence a world market driven by psychology. Optimistic statements are immediately given a positive spin regardless of realities. The markets are going to live with these sentiments in the coming weeks and we are most probably going to see volatility and big day-to-day changes in stocks as well as commodities and currencies. Yesterday gold was hardest hit and fell 40 dollar an ounce during the session. It has recovered and trades at present at 1722. Also oil and silver took a hard punch to normalize around USD 110 a barrels for Brent crude and 33,70 for silver.
Euro/USD fell 70 points during one session and saw a low on 1.2875 before climbing back to 1.2955 and the same level as last Friday when the common currency was strengthened by the prospects of a debt deal on Greece in Brussels. By finalizing the deal Monday night the Euro reached 1.3010 to plunge back to yesterday’s low levels. The comments from US policy makers rekindled hopes of avoiding a crash landing on the US budget; and strengthened the Euro.
USD/JPY has also demonstrated great volatility during the last week. It is now trading at 82,14 bouncing back from a week high on 81,68 against the dollar on Wednesday. The dollar has corrected after reaching a 7 ½ month high of 82,84 last week. The yen has been under pressure over the last couple of weeks on speculations about aggressive monetary easing in Japan after the elections in mid-December. It is expected that USD/JPY is going to continue to trade in a range between 81 and 83 till we have seen the outcome of the elections.
Asian shares touched their highest levels in more than three weeks. The MSCI-index for Asia-Pacific jumped 1 percent after ending a seven-day winning streak on Wednesday. Also commodities are up on “optimism” for reaching a compromise on the US-budget. Nikkei in Japan and Australian shares were up as the Shanghai composite index as yesterday saw its lowest level since January 2009.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Nov 30 2012
Moody's predicts softer EU GDPs in 2013
Following comments from Moody’s about Greece struggling to be back on a sustainable debt path, also adding that they see high odds of Greek default on privately held debt, the rating agency hit back again on Thursday, this time to remind Eurozone countries that growth for 2013 is expected to be meager. According to Moody's, the Euro zone GDP is expected to rise 0.2% next year, with France GDP projection at 0.4%, Germany to show a 1.2% increase, while contractions in the tune of 4.2% and 1.5% are expected in Greece and Spain respectively. If Greece leaves the euro zone, the EU GDP would fall 4.5%, Moody’s forecasts.
An official from the Greek finance ministry announced on Wednesday plans of hiring Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley to carry out the voluntary bond buyback. He affirmed that Deutsche Bank would take on the role of the principal supervisor, but would work closely together with Morgan Stanley. This decision comes after the EU and the IMF reached an agreement on conducting a debt repurchase aimed at reducing Greek debt to sustainable levels. Details of the buyback will be announced next week by the Greek debt management agency. As it has almost run out of money, the Greek government proposed that it would borrow 10 billion euros from the EFSF, which would allow it to buy 30 billion euros worth of debt, reducing thus its outstanding obligations by 20 billion euros. Greece still hasn't decided at what price it will offer the bond buyback to private holders of bonds.-FXstreeet.com

30 NOVEMBER 2012: ASIAN STOCKS AND EURO TRADE STRONGER
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Telecommunications and health stocks were the winners in New York last night as Dow Jones and Nasdaq rose marginally. The Dow Jones industrial average passed the 13 000 mark and seems to end the week in positive territory. Investors were buying on sporadic dips roiled by conflicting comments from Washington about negotiations on a budget compromise to avoid the “fiscal cliff”, fear for a combination of budget cuts and tax hikes. Wall Street reversed early gains and fell after the Speaker of the House, leading Republican John Boehner, dashed hopes that lawmakers were getting closer to a deal. It picked up at greater optimism for a compromise at the end of the session. The extreme volatility in the markets is probably continuing as long with the stalemate in Congress.
Stock markets in Europe ended in positive territory yesterday on initial compromise optimism from both President Obama and the House Speaker Wednesday night. The exchanges in Asia started the trading day on a positive note. Asian shares rose to a nine-month peak Friday morning. Japan’s industrial output rose unexpectedly 1,8 percent in October, up for the first time in four months. This along with a new announced stimulus package from the Japanese government helped Nikkei win 0,8%. Also the Shanghai and Taiwan bourses produced healthy gains. The mining giant Rio Tinto is up 3 percent upon presenting savings and restructuring measures worth USD 5 billion.
Japanese yen is losing on the stimulus plans after gaining against the dollar earlier in the week. USD/JPY is trading at 82,45 well inside the newly established 81 – 83 corridor. Euro/USD is again stronger at 1.2999 up 50 points from yesterday’s start. The euro reached 1.3015 on Thursday, the highest level seen since 31st October. The euro is helped by the bail-out package for Greece. It is expected that a skeptical German parliament will approve the support for Greece in a vote today. This will probably give the euro a new temporary boost.
The US government said yesterday that third-quarter gross domestic product expanded at a 2,7 percent annual rate, the fastest pace since late 2011. Export growth help offset weakest consumer spending and the first drop in business investment in more than a year. Brent crude is trading at USD 110, 49 a barrel marginally up from Thursday. US crude futures, NYMEX, is falling 0,4 percent. Increased tensions and escalating violence in Syria and Egypt are stoking permanent fear of oil supply disruptions. Gold has gained back 20 dollars from yesterday’s steep fall and trades at 1727. Silver is at USD 34,20 an ounce, the same level as seen at the peak earlier in the week.

03 DECEMBER 2012: EURO AND ASIA RISE ON CHINESE MANUFACTURING
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Euro/USD rose to 1.3048 and Asian stocks jumped to a nine-month high on further signs of a stabilizing Chinese economy boosted investor’s risk appetite. China’s vast manufacturing sector quickened in November for the first time in 13 months. HSBC bank’s Purchasing Managers’ Survey, PMI, rose to 50,5. A further evidence that the Chinese economy is picking up after quarters of slowing growth. China’s official PMI was even higher at 50,6. An official PMI for the non-manufacturing sector reached 55,6 led by construction services.
The upbeat Chinese manufacturing data helped the Euro reach a six-week high against the dollar. The Euro was also strengthened by Angela Merkel’s careful remarks that Germany, in a medium, longer term perspective, might consider to write off Greek’s debt if the country succeeds in getting its house in order.
The rhetoric on the “fiscal cliff” increased during the weekend when Democrats and Republicans went on the air to trade accusations on whom are mostly to blame for the budget stalemate. This also helped the euro. In spite that there still seem to be a huge distance to cross before any budget deal sight is in sight, markets nevertheless seem to have discounted a compromise. All asset classes posted gains in November with higher appetite for securities. Security markets except the Shanghai composite rose.
The Japanese Nikkei continues to rise on a lower yen and expectations for monetary easing after the parliamentarian elections in mid-December. The dollar steadied at 82,40 yen not far from the 82,84 yen touched on November 22. Speculators have over the last weeks boosted a short yen position which was at its highest since May 2007.
US, NYMEX crude and Brent futures are inching up at 89,16 and 111,57 respectively. Copper gained 0,3 percent to USD 8018 a metric ton. Gold is slightly up to 1719 on a weaker dollar. The DXY dollar index against a basket of major currencies are down 0,2 percent.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 03 2012
Merkel no longer discards losses on Greek debt
Weekend headlines suggest German Chancellor Angela Merkel may be re-thinking its stance over future Greece's debt haircuts, after she said on Sunday this is an option to consider, although not until the ongoing rescue program shows Greece's budget turned into a surplus. Since last Tuesday's deal to ease the mammoth-size debt burden that the Greek government suffers, so that its debt to GDP ratio can come down to 126.6% or thereabouts by 2020, Germany's posture on write-downs of Greek debt has been firm, saying that it would be illegal to pursue such scenario.
The majority of German Chancellor Angela Merkel's center-right coalition members as well as the main opposition parties supported the Greek deal. This outcome has positive implications for Merkel herself, as the vote was also a test of her lawmaker's support for her European policies, ahead of the federal elections scheduled for September 2013. During the debate preceding the vote German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble expressed his satisfaction with Greece's austerity efforts and emphasized that the speculation on another haircut on Greek debt could destabilize the situation in the Eurozone further. - FXstreet.com

EUR/USD
The Euro continues its rally after consolidation around 1.3000 and weekly close just below the figure. Fresh strength through 1.3000, also daily Ichimoku cloud top and 1.3020/25, previous highs / Fib 76.4%, opens way towards trendline resistance at 1.3082 and psychological 1.3100 barrier. 10-day EMA at 1.3020 offers initial support, ahead of more significant 1.3000, while any deeper dips should be contained at 1.2970/60, higher platform / 50% of 1.2879/1.3046, to keep immediate bulls intact. Conversely, violation of 1.2960/40 support zone, would delay bulls in favor of stronger retracement towards 1.2920/00, next support area.

GBP/USD
Cable remains congested under strong 1.6050 barrier, following last Friday’s unsuccessful attempt to break higher. Near-term price action is entrenched within 1.6060 and 1.5960 range, as bulls run out of steam and indicators hold neutral tone. Upside break to open 1.6100, while penetration of 1.6000/1.5990 supports, would risk test of range floor and possibly open way for fresh weakness towards 1.5900.

USD/JPY
The pair lacked momentum for full reversal of 82.83/81.68 descend, as rally from 81.68 stalled at 82.74 and subsequent corrective action is under way. Weekly close above 82.00 keeps bullish structure intact for possible attempt at psychological 83.00 level, with 82.00 expected to contain. Only violation of 81.68 support would sideline bulls and allow for stronger corrective action towards 81.40, Fib 38.2% of 79.06/82.83 and 81.00, round figure support.

USD/CHF
The pair continues to trend lower, with series of loser lows, keeping focus at key near-term support and larger consolidation range floor at 0.9213. With fresh low being posted overnight and upside capped by descending 20 day EMA at 0.9260, bears remain fully in play. Negative studies on 1 and 4h chart support the notion. Only break above 0.9300, daily Ichimoku cloud base / Fib 61.8% of 0.9339/0.9242, would avert immediate downside risk.

Spain makes formal request for EU funds to recapitalize ailing banks
Spain has formally requested aid for its ailing banking sector on Monday. 36.5 billion euros of bailout funds, including 2.5 billion euros for the “bad bank", are due to be released on December 12. Four nationalized Spanish banks will be the recipients of the funds: 18 billion will go to Bankia; 9 billion to CatalunyaBanc, 5 billion to Nova Caixa Galicia; 4.5 billion to Banco de Valencia. The release of the aid is expected to be approved by the Eurogroup during their monthly meeting today in the European afternoon.
Even though it is not the full sovereign bailout request awaited by the markets, the news caused the euro to spike to the 1.3075 region, a new six-week high against the dollar. - FXstreet.com

04 DECEMBER 2012: WALL STREET FALLS ON WEAK DATA
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Manufacturing activity in the United States surprisingly contracted in November, dropping to its lowest level in three years. The fiscal cliff remains, however, investors’ primary focus. The political haggling over how to deal with large automatic spending cuts and tax hikes scheduled to kick in at the beginning of the new year, threatens to threw the US economy into new recession. Both Dow Jones and Nasdaq fell back after three straight winning days for the US indexes. The S&P index which composes an average of US stocks, are in spite of yesterday’s weakness still up 12, 1 percent in 2012, making stocks one of the assets classes winners.
Asian bourses and the Japanese Nikkei edged down in early Tuesday trading when the weak US data triggered profit-taking on exporters. The US economy is key to the fortunes of Japanese exporters which rely heavily on consumption in the world biggest economy. Asian markets got a boost over the weekend when the Chinese economy demonstrated healthy manufacturing data and strong signals for a rebound. Yesterday’s gains were eaten by a new cold shower from the US. The Japanese yen which recently has fallen against the USD, fluctuated heavily yesterday. After USD/JPY had traded at its lowest levels in weeks, JPY recovered strongly on the weak US manufacturing data. It is now trading at 82,10.
The Euro/USD is still strong. It rose to 1.3076 during yesterday’s trading, the highest level seen since October 22. The Euro dropped against yen after rising to a seven-month high on 107,67 on Monday. A Greek bond buyback scheme at 65 – 70 % reduction of nominal value has attracted interest and also strengthened the common currency. There are small changes in other currency pairs. Australian dollar is stabile against yen and USD, and the Scandinavian currencies are demonstrating strength both against USD and Euro. EURO/USD is trading at 1.3054 at present.
Oil prices are down. Brent crude has tipped down a dollar to 110,54. Precious metals are also trading lower. After recovering from end of last week’s steep fall from 1750-level to 1707, gold traded at 1721 yesterday. This morning gold has dropped down to 1703, a fall of 15 dollar an ounce.

EUR/USD
The single currency trades in a consolidative mode, after posting fresh high at 1.3074 yesterday. With previous high at 1.3046, protecting the downside along with ascending 20 day EMA and yesterday’s close above the latter, scope exists for attempt at initial 1.3100 target, clearance of which to open way towards key barriers at 1.3138 and 1.3170. However, further consolidative / corrective action cannot be ruled out, as 4h indicators are near overbought zone and moving sideways. Psychological 1.3000 support, also Fib 38.2% of 1.2879/1.3074 upleg and daily Ichimoku cloud top, is expected to contain any stronger pullback.

GBP/USD
The pair maintains positive sentiment that emerged on yesterday’s break above 1.6050 congestion top and cracked initial target at 1.6100, spiking to 1.6114 so far. Shallow correction that was contained by 20 day EMA at 1.6085, keeps bulls in play for final push towards 1.6174/78 Oct / Now double-top, with interim barriers at 1.6124, Fib 61.8% of 1.6308/1.5826 and 1.6140, 26 Oct high. Overnight’s lows at 1.6085, offer immediate support, ahead of more significant 1.6050, previous resistance, reinforced by ascending 55 day EMA.

USD/JPY
The pair comes under increased pressure, following upside rejection at 82.36, with fresh weakness attempting below 82.00 handle. Hourly studies remain negative, with 4h ones breaking into the negative territory. This increases risk of further weakness and test key near-term support and range floor at 81.68, 28 Nov low. Break here is seen as a trigger for stronger corrective action towards 81.40/00, Fibonacci support, also as confirmation of near-term double-top formation that would put near-term bulls on hold. Only bounce through yesterday’s intraday high at 82.36, would avert immediate downside risk.

USD/CHF
The pair enters near-term consolidative phase, just above fresh low at 0.9239 and key support and near-term target at 0.9213. With hourly studies gaining traction, further sideways movements are likely, however, weak 4h structure and upside being limited by descending 20 day EMA at 0.9260 zone, does not leave much room for any significant corrective action.

No breakthrough on banking union due to Franco-German dispute
A clash between France and Germany over banking supervision in the Eurozone prevented the Eurogroup from reaching an agreement on the EU banking union on Tuesday. EU finance ministers decided to hold an additional meeting on December 12, just ahead of the EU summit on December 13, by which time a deal on the banking union needs to be made. France and Germany are divided over the scope of ECB's powers as the Eurozone bank supervisor. France pushes for a solution in which the central bank would regulate all the financial institutions in the region, while Germany would like smaller banks to be excluded from this supervision. Berlin is also not too keen on seeing a full banking union formed that quickly, as it fears it will be obliged to pay for potential future banking losses in other Member States.
German finance minister Wolfgang Schäuble commented on France's proposition saying that there was no possibility for the central bank to supervise so many financial institutions, while his French counterpart Pierre Moscovici stated that the EU cannot introduce a system of dual supervision."We have no mandate for a dual system of supervision which would call into question the existence of a single system for some banks," the French finance minister argued. - FXstreet.com

05 DECEMBER 2012: OBAMA STAYS FIRM ON TAXES FOR RICH
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
President Barack Obama held his ground on the “fiscal cliff” Tuesday. In an interview with Bloomberg Television Obama stressed that no budget compromise was possible without the wealthiest Americans paying their fair share of common expenses. With less than a month left to confront budget cuts and tax increases that will take effect from January 1st unless Congress acts, Republicans seem increasingly in disarray over how far to go to compromise with Obama’s demands. In the interview Obama took a conciliatory tone, but excluded any further tax burdens on an embattled middle class.
The insecurity over whether total budget cuts and tax hikes amounting to USD 300 billion would be implemented in some few weeks’ time, has severely affected markets. Wall Street finished slightly lower in a quiet session with thin trading volumes. Hewlett Packard recovering from last week’s onslaught when its share prices dropped 15 % in one day, was together with Intel who announced a buy-back of own shares, the winners.
Asian shares rose Wednesday led by surging Chinese equities. The MSCI index for Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan were up 0,6 percent. Shanghai shares surged 3 percent to reclaim the 2000 point level. Hong Kong shares jumped 1,3 percent. Nikkei also inched up on a statement from Bank of Japan confirming willingness for more aggressive monetary easing. USD/JPY which during yesterday’s trading strengthened substantially and reached 81,75, fell back in morning trade to 82,25 supporting exporters.
Better than expected terms for Greek bonds buy-back plan raised optimism that Athens will secure much needed emergency aid to avert a default. The news took the euro/USD above 1.32 levels for the first time in months. The Euro was also helped by Obama’s statements that weakened the dollar and increased risk sentiments. Gold saw a new set-back and fell to 1685. It has recovered to 1701 in morning trade. Oil prices have as well recovered from yesterday’s lows. Brent crude is up 0,2 % trading above USD 110 a barrel.

S&P downgrades Greece to selective default
In an unsurprising headline, reflected by the marginal losses in EUR/USD since the news broke, the rating agency S&P has downgraded Greece's long-term debt rating to selective default from CCC. Greece is technically default. The Greek government invitation to private sector bondholders involvement to participate in the debt buybacks program triggered the decision by S&P. However, according to Jamie McGeever, Editor and presenter at Reuters TV, "once Greek buyback is done, probably on or around Dec 17, selective default will be over, so S&P will likely lift Greece back to CCC rating."
British Chancellor George Osborne delivered his Autumn Budget Statement before the parliament on Wednesday. He emphasized that the Eurozone debt crisis had been weighing on the UK economy and informed that the Office of Budget Responsibility slashed its GDP forecast to -0.1% in 2012 from +0.8%. The predictions for 2012 and 2013 are 1.2% and 2.0%, respectively. - FXstreet.com

06 DECEMBER 2012: NOKIA CAUSES FALL IN APPLE
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
US stocks ended mostly higher on Wednesday. Dow Jones gained 0,64 percent and is again trading above 13 000. Nasdaq ended in red after the largest US company by market capitalization, Apple, swallowed its biggest fall In share prices in four years. Apple fell 6 percent and is down more than 20 percent from an all-time high reached in late September. Market participants cited a host of reasons for the drop; the company is losing share in the tablet market and NOKIA joining ranks with China’s biggest smart phone maker will give Apple a tough fight on the Chinese market.
Banking shares went higher led by Citigroup which jumped 6,3 % on a 10 000 employees or 4 % cut in its workforce. Cyclical shares closely tied to economic growth, also rallied on optimism on progress on a solution to avoid the fiscal cliff. Obama met with business chief executives in Washington and stressed readiness for a compromise if Republicans acknowledged the need to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans. If the Republicans demonstrate such willingness, a budget deal can be reached within a week. The Republican is under strong pressure not at least from their own constituencies and; cracks in the ranks and possible “defectors” are likely to appear.
In England the Finance minister, George Osborne presented a new austerity budget to the House of Commons admitting that to have fallen short to obtain former set targets set. The budget proposal is most probably going to raise a new heated debate on whether austerity measures as practiced in England, Greece and other Western European countries are the right medicine to fight sovereign debt, trade and budget deficits. “Osborne has no more tricks to play”, commented one of the biggest British dailies.
Obama’s “fiscal cliff” comments created optimism in Asia where shares rose to a 16-month high. The Japanese Nikkei climbed 0,8 percent helped by a weaker yen. USD/JPY trades at 82,45. Euro/USD eased to 1.3054 after reaching a seven-week high of USD 1.3127 Wednesday. A disappointing Spanish bond auction reminded investors of the fragile fiscal health both of Spain and inside the euro zone and prompted a sell-off in the single currency. The markets are today waiting for the European Central Bank’s policy decision and US labor market report tomorrow.
Oil prices have fallen over the last 24 hours. Brent crude is one dollar down and trades below USD 109 a barrel. Gold is under downward pressure and tested the lows for the week at USD 1685 an ounce yesterday.

07 DECEMBER 2012: EURO FALLS ON BLEAK OUTLOOK
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The European Central Bank, ECB’s, bleak outlook for the euro zone presented at a press conference yesterday, created turbulence in the currencies markets. The euro/USD fell to its lowest level in one week at 1.2969, down 150 basis points from its high on Wednesday. The fall in the Euro has worsened by the political development in Italy where Silvio Berlusconi’s Freedom Party withdrew its support for the technocrat government of Prime Minister Mario Monti. This immediately put pressure also on Italian bonds.
The main trigger for the sharply negative euro reaction was the mention of a “wide discussion over rate cuts. ECB President Mario Draghi said policymakers had considered cutting its main 0,75 % policy rate before deciding to leave it on hold. Draghi added that the ECB also “operationally was ready for negative rates”. This caused the euro to tumble and led biggest one-day loss in the single currency in one month.
The Euro fell steeply also against yen and other currencies. USD/JPY is urging up at 82,48. The slid in the Euro helped push the dollar index, DXY, up to 80,236 rebounding from a six week low of 79,58. Investors’ eyes are now on US non-farm payrolls report to be published later today. A sharp slowdown in employment growth IS expected due to the disruptions caused by super storm Sandy.
Asian shares touched fresh 16-months on Friday following modest gains in global equities as investors watched progress in US budget talks. Recent indicators suggesting stabilized growth in China has helped improve sentiments in Asia. The MSCI index for Asia-Pacific shares rose 0,6 percent and has gained 17 percent during 2012. Hong Kong shares reached a 16-month high. In the US a rebound in Apple helped boost technology shares on quiet exchanges.
Oil prices fell heavily yesterday. Brent crude tipped below USD 107 a barrel, but has recovered somewhat. Gold is again trading above USD 1700 an ounce.

ECB, Berlusconi Hit EURUSD Hard
Lower by 0.73% in the morning session, the EURUSD is being weighed down by major developments in Europe. Specifically, sparks of political instability in one of the troubled EU members, as well as a pessimistic outlook on Europe’s growth potential is making it difficult for traders to be bullish the Euro. The sentiment has traders and technicians eyeing the 1.2900 as the next viable support barrier. Although leaving the benchmark interest rate at 0.75% early in the morning, the European Central Bank issued a dour note when it came time to assess the economic future of the European Union. In a post decision press conference, ECB President Mario Draghi noted that significant headwinds had placed pressure on a potential regional recovery. So much so that growth prospects for next year were forecasted lower, with the 17-member Union looking to either remain unchanged or contract slightly. Official estimates now lie between a 0.3% pace of growth and a 0.9% contraction in 2013.
Additionally, Draghi noted that “available statistics and survey indicators continue to signal further weakness in activity in the last quarter of the year”.This isn’t seen as favorable for the Euro, which was expecting a slight recovery in the European Union next year – at a pace of 0.5%. - FXstreet.com

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 10 2012
Italian PM Monti announces intention to resign; early elections likely in February
The political news coming from Italy, in which current primer minister Mario Monti plans to resign once the 2013 budget goes through parliament and is approved, are not sitting well with the Euro, as investors anticipate it may lead to a new chapter in the EU crisis. The prospects of higher Italian bond yields when Europe opens weighs on the Euro. The Italian general elections, upon final confirmation, will likely be celebrated in February. Former primer minister Silvio Berlusconi is to run as centre-right candidate, and with the threat of an 'Il Cavaliere'-led anti-euro campaign looming, traders have logically turned cautious. The leading centre-left PD party is still in control, with Berlusconi's centre-right PDL behind by over 16 points.
According to NAB: "Prospects of Italian bond yields spiking higher when Europe opens is driving the euro lower. EUR bears would though do well to note that the People of Liberty party currently trails the centre-left Democratic party by 20% points. Plus, the re-appearance of Mr Berlusconi to the centre of the Italian political stage may well prompt Mr Monti to make him himself available for re-selection as PM after elections now seen likely to occur next February, three months earlier than originally intended." - FXstreet.com

EUR/USD
The Euro starts the week under increased pressure, despite Friday’s close above 1.2900 handle, as gap lower open tested levels below 50% of 1.2660/1.3125 ascend. With bears fully in control on lower timeframes studies, and failure to fill the gap, further weakness is seen as likely near-term scenario. Immediate target lies at 1.2839, Fib 61.8%, ahead of strong support zone at 1.2820, where daily Ichimoku cloud base and bull-trendline off 1.2042 lie. Overnight’s high at 1.2914, reinforced by hourly 200 day EMA, offer initial resistance, followed by 1.2950, 06 Dec low / 07 Dec intraday high / 55 day EMA and 1.2971, 07 Dec high / Fib 38.2% of 1.3125/1.2876. Only regain of psychological 1.3000 barrier, also 50% retracement, would avert immediate downside risk.

GBP/USD
Cable’s near-term price action moves above psychological 1.6000 support, also last Friday’s low, with gains being capped by 4h 55 day EMA at 1.6040 zone. Negative hourly studies are lacking momentum for stronger recovery, as additional pressure comes from 4h indicators that moved into negative territory. This keeps immediate focus at the downside, as loss of 1.6000 handle is expected to open way for further retracement of 1.5826/1.6129 rally and confirm double-top pattern. Immediate downside targets lie at 1.5978/60, Fib 50% / 28 now low, below which to possibly target 1.5942/00, Fib 61.8% / 76.4% retracement. Overnight’s high at 1.6042, offers initial resistance, while break through 1.6060, Last Friday’s high and 50% of 1.6127/1.6000, would provide relief and signal basing attempt.

USD/JPY
Near-term tone shows signs of improvement, as hourly / 4h studies broke higher and the price attacked 82.80 barrier and near-term range –top. However, failure to clear 83.00 barrier, shows lack of momentum and keeps the range barrier intact for now. Holding above 82.20, 55 day EMA, would keep the prospect for possible fresh attempt high, while break below would shift near-term focus lower and expose 82.00 and 81.70, range floor.

USD/CHF
The pair maintains near-term positive stance, following break above important 0.9300/40 barriers and extension higher that so far retraced over 50% of 0.9511/0.9239 decline at 0.9381. Overnight gap-higher opening and approach to important 0.9400/20 resistance zone, keeps the downside protected for now and looks for further retracement. However, extended hourly conditions may signal further consolidation, with 0.9320 zone, last Friday’s lows, reinforced by ascending 55 day EMA, expected to contain. Break of 0.9400 and 0.9420, 200 day MA, is required to resume recovery and signal triple-bottom.

10 DECEMBER 2012: ASIAN SHARES FIRM ON US OPTIMISM
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Asian stocks stayed firm at its 16-month high Monday morning as better growth outlook for US and China gave raise to modest optimism. This came after US consumer confidence plunged in early December as fear over imminent tax raises and spending cuts, the fiscal cliff, outweighed the better than expected raise in non-farm payrolls job data. Unemployment fall from 7,9 to 7,7 % in November adding 146 000 new jobs suggests a modest momentum in US economy. The drop in unemployment figures is, however, mainly due to 350 000 people leaving the labor market.
The Asia Pacific share index rose 0,3 percent. The index was up 1 percent last week for its third successive weekly gain. Regional Asian market was Sunday further boosted when China reported a pick-up in factory output and retail sales after stagnating for seven quarters. Chinese exports and imports were, however, delivering below forecast presenting a mixed picture.
The Euro/USD continues to slide. Euro reached a two week low of 1.2876 on Friday after the German central back warned that Germany, the biggest economy inside the euro zone, might soon enter into recession. The Euro is at present trading at 1.2893. The pro Euro Italian Prime Minister, Mario Monti, announced during the weekend that his government will withdraw. That will put the Euro under increased pressure. The development in ten-year Italian bonds which are seen as a main confidence barometer for investors shall be closely followed today.
The American dollar is up 0,3 percent against a basket of major currencies. Commodity markets led by copper are generally firmer on expectation of stronger Chinese industrial demand. Oil prices are stabilizing after falling steeply last week. Brent crude trades at USD 107,40 a barrel. Gold (1706) and silver (33,14) are up from Friday.

11 DECEMBER 2012: EUROPEAN LEADERS URGE MONTI TO STAY
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
EU leaders urged the next Italian government to stick to Mario Monti’s reform agenda after the Prime Minister’s surprise decision to resign earlier than expected. Silvio Berlusconi’s return to front-line politics rattled the financial markets in Europe. Ten year Italian bonds, a good barometer on investor’s confidence, fell to 4,75 percent. EURO/USD also fell well below 1,29 on Monday, but has since recovered and trades at 1.2942 in early Asian trading.
Monti’s surprise weekend announcement came after Berlusconi’s People of Freedom Party withdraw its support for his technocrat government which over the last year has brought some predictability back to Italian politics. Monti, a former EU-Commissioner, has been seen as Brussels’ man and enjoy strong support from Germany’s Angela Merkel. Monti is a strong supporter of the Euro in contrast to Berlusconi who is seen as a Euro skeptic. Italian shares fell along with bonds yesterday. New elections are scheduled for February.
In the US political haggling over the “fiscal cliff” continues with no solution in sight as the clock is ticking closer to the 31st December deadline. US indexes ended flat with low turn-over. Asian stocks are marginally up. Australian stocks gained 0,4 percent on stronger commodity prices and better prospects for China. The Japanese Nikkei dropped after successive days of gain. A 10 % rally over the last month has worried investors as see signs of over buying.
The dollar firmed against Yen trading at 82,40. JPY is also under pressure by expectations of monetary easing by the Bank of Japan (BOJ). Oil prices were up during yesterday’s trade. Brent crude reached USD 108 a barrel, but has as gold and precious metals fallen back in early Asian trade. Brent trades at 107,25 and gold has dropped from 1715 to 1708.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 11 2012
Silvio Berlusconi Makes Trouble For EURUSD Bulls
Although the single currency is higher on the day, it’s abundantly clear that the recent resignation by Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti is keeping Euro bulls at bay. The prime minister is now scheduled to step down following the 2013 budget vote taking place before the end of the year – instead of serving till April of next year. The announcement changes the political landscape of the largest of the troubled peripheral nations, and will likely add to recent pessimism when it comes to the single currency. However, with public discontent over recent austerity and tax increases rising, many of Monti’s previous allies have fallen away. In particular, former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and his People of Freedom (PDL) party, have become disenchanted with the current administration. The sentiment was heightened last week when representatives of the PDL walked out of an economic reform vote – calling for a vote of no-confidence in the prime minister. The notion was unfortunately backed by several other members of the Democratic Party – Monti’s major backer in the political arena.
With Monti’s final resignation to come in the next few weeks, it will be up to Italian President Giorgio Napolitano to dissolve parliament, and either appoint a successor or keep Monti as the country’s PM. General elections will follow, placing the date somewhere in February 2013 at the earliest. - FXstreet.com

Cable holds near-term positive tone, established on a strong bounce from 1.6000 support zone, despite yesterday’s rejection on approach to psychological 1.6100 barrier.

Otherwise, loss of 1.6060, also 55 day EMA, would see increased risk of re-visiting 1.6000 area.

Greek banks tender rest of Greek debt holdings to help reach buyback target
According to reports, Greece has reached the bond buyback target at 31.5 billion euros on Tuesday. The deadline for submitting bids was extended by one more day yesterday, due to the inability to reach the expected 30 billion euros by initial deadline which ended on December 7 at 17:00 GMT. Greek banks probably tendered the total amount of the Greek debt they hold in order to help cover the difference between the 26.5 billion euros received last Friday and the the expected 30 billion euros. This means that the EU and the IMF will now be able to unblock the next bailout tranche for the indebted country.
Spain held a debt auction on Tuesday during which it managed to sell 3.89 billion euros of 12- and 18 -month government bods, above the targeted 3.5 billion euros. 2.39 billion euros of 12-month bills were auctioned at an average yield of 2.556%, down from 2.797% seen at the previous auction. The bid to cover ratio was at 2.46, compared with the previous 2.12. 1.5 billion euros of 18-month bonds were sold at an average yield of 2.778% versus 3.034%. The bid to cover ratio was at 2.7 from 5.72 seen previously.

After the agreement among EU finance ministers to allow the ECB to supervise banks in the Euro-zone, a stream of follow-up headlines continues via Reuters, saying that the ECB new supervisory role should be up and running by end of 2013. Decision was unanimous, EU’s Commissioner Faull said. Meanwhile, French Finance Minister Pierre Moscovic notes, via Reuters: “ECB will supervise 3 biggest banks in each country, with the Euro area to have uniform banking rules.” He also added that “the ECB supervision is first step to Euro banking union…”
Schaeuble, German FinMin said to Reuters reporters “the EU wants the ECB oversight in full in 2014″, with other parallel comments from officials saying ECB supervisor “should help break bank-sovereign link.” – FXstreet.com

13 DECEMBER 2012: BERNANKE UNDERMINED ENTHUSIASM OF BULLS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Investors finally got the most awaited news of a December after FRS announced its decisions. Results of meeting were quite expected: was made the decision on repayment of state bonds with longer circulation periods for $45 billion. Plus to it will remain the QE3 program of $40 billion a month. Total $85 billion a month.
And the markets fell into thoughtfulness: in fact, FRS finally undersigns that constant injections is the only thing that can help economy and a financial system. The debt market reacted to it with the sales of treasures - rates on 10-year bonds grew to 1,7%. Dow Jones, Nasdaq and S&P500 could not continue its upward development and were closed practically at a zero level.
EUR/USD tested a reasonable demand from the very beginning of trading day though it is impossible to tell that movements had large-scale character. The British positive data gave optimism; however confusion with the Greek debt and expectation of the next meeting of Ministers of Finance of Europe limited growth, but further publication of the accompanying statement of FOMC which has coincided with expectations of the QE expansion led the prices to a maximum of 1,3097. This morning EUR/USD is traded on a level of 1.3082.
Today the Japanese yen is again sharply weakening and bargains on the minimum levels since spring of the current year against euro and dollar. Dynamics of yen also gives support to the Japanese market, helping to show a steady growth. Pair yesterday from levels of opening 82,53 broke through higher than 83,00, reached a maximum 83,29 and was rolled away to the area 83,20 on closing. This morning, we can already see USD/JPY traded on a level of 83.61. There is not much time left till elections, so movements will be warmed up upward not only with USD strengthening, but also on expectations on political change in Japan.
Prices of oil following the results of last trading session showed positive dynamics. The OPEC countries following the results of the meeting on Wednesday, as expected, kept a quota of oil production at former level - 30 million barrels a day. At the same time, the OPEC plans to reduce gradually raw materials production to correspond to the designated quota. Today Brent crude bargains with fall, losing 0,23% to level of closing of previous day.
Prices for metals and precious metals are strongly falling, gold is losing more than 1% and traded on a level of 1699.38; silver is on a level of 32.97 and decreasing for 2.40%.

Leaders debate EMU consolidation after bank supervision deal
In order to achieve the completion of EMU, the 27-countries bloc made further progress on the roadmap to achieve such goals, after the agreement for a Euro bank supervisor by the ECB earlier on the week, which will police north of 200 flagship banks.Today's European leaders meeting, which again concluded over 2 hours past midnight Brussels time, showed some understandable differences on how to go about the next critical steps, such as a banking resolution, measure to reduce country's deficit and a budget for the whole bloc. One of the notorious opposed members to see mutualisation of the debts after the ECB bank's oversight role, was German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who continues to play it safely against passing new liabilities for German taxpayers ahead of next year's national elections.
As Reuters notes, "a German delegation source said that in the summit room, she opposed a joint resolution fund for banks at this stage and rejected any big "fiscal capacity" to help euro zone states cope with economic shocks or reward them for structural reforms. Instead, she said EU countries should concentrate on consolidating their own budgets, according to notes of the meeting and an account provided by one participant." Merkel, once out of the official meeting, told reporters that the bank union deal was a 'very important' decision taken by the EZ leaders, and that such agreement paves the way for future positive developments of a currency union. On the transaction tax, she suspects a solidarity fund for Euro zone states with limits 10 to 20 billion Euros. - https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/14122012/

14 DECEMBER 2012: THE PROBLEM OF "FISCAL CLIFF" AGAIN CAME TO THE FOREFRONT
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
After decisions coming from meeting of FRS nothing distracts investors from a problem of "fiscal cliff", especially, taking into account that till Christmas there is less than two weeks, and gleams in negotiations between democrats and republicans aren't observed yet. For example, the speaker John Beyner noted that the president Barack Obama “isn't serious" concerning a question of decrease of expenses which republicans consider as the main priority. Even successful data on a labor market according to which the number of primary requests for unemployment benefits fell in one week to 343 thousand at being expected 370 thousand couldn't affect moods of investors. Dow Jones and S&P500 ended up with loosing 0.56% and 0.63% accordingly.
In the last day of the current working week the index of China SSE again shows growth almost for 3%, practically coming back to the autumn maximum levels. As occasion to such positive became preliminary statistics on the production index PMI from HSBC bank according to which the index grew again and reached level of 50,9. It is a maximum level since October of last year, besides value of an index increases the second month in a row that testifies about growth of business activity in production sector.
Important news were coming from Europe where Ministers of Finance agreed to give a right to European Central Bank to regulate the main European banks of the Euro zone, however while it isn't known when the regulator will be able to start new duties. Besides, today the Euro group approved allocation of the following monetary tranche to Greece as it estimated efforts of the country on national debt reduction. This factor is a positive moment for the EU markets. 34 billion euro will be available to Greece immediately, and total amount for a repayment of a debt will be 49.1 billion euro.
The European currency still keeps above a level of 1.30 in relation to dollar, however today it was corrected from 1.3090 to 1.3045 points, and now reached a level of 1.3105.
Meanwhile the Japanese currency continues to fall. Today USD/JPY pair bargains at the level of 83,9, against yesterday's level of 83,5. On this background the exporters sensitive to fluctuations of exchange rates, still are leaders of growth, Sharp rises in price for 4,4%, and Toshiba and Pioneer for 1,8%.
Prices of oil following the results of last trading session showed negative dynamics against decrease in the majority of world stock markets. Further weakening of dollar in case of resolution of a collision around the budgetary agreement in the USA can become a key factor of growth of the oil prices. Today this morning Brent crude is traded on a level of 107.01.

U.S. Fiscal Cliff: Republican leadership softens stance on tax rates
The Fiscal Cliff negotiations are showing signs of progress after the weekend brought an offer from GOP lawmakers to allow tax rates to rise on those making more than $1mn; President Obama had been demanding that tax rates rise on those earning over $250k. “With progress remaining slow and messages mixed expect ongoing debt negotiations to well and truly steal the limelight in the lead up to Christmas,” says OzForex Research.
According to Cliff Wachtel, author of The Sensible Guide To Forex, the general fiscal cliff uncertainty is bearish: “Given the widespread consensus that there would be a deal deferring most of the potential government spending cuts and tax increases, and that most global stock indexes remain within 10% of their decade highs, it’s safe to say that markets have not priced in a failure to reach a deal.”

17 DECEMBER 2012: USD/JPY AT 20-MONTH LOW AFTER ELECTIONS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The yen slumped to its lowest level against the dollar after Japan’s conservative Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), which is committed to aggressive monetary easing, won a landslide victory in Sunday’s Japanese elections. The LDP surged back to power giving ex-Premier, Shinzo Abe, another chance to push through his agenda which includes outspoken active steps towards deflation, possibly revival of Japan’s nuclear energy program and a more nationalistic policy that might cause more tense relation towards China.
The dollar rose to 84,18 yen reaching its highest level since April 2011 from around 83,50 yen on Friday. There has been active profit taking in the morning, but USD/JPY is still trading above the 84 level. The Euro jumped to 111.30 yen from 109,81. The Australian dollar climbed above 89 for yen for the first time since May 2011. The Bank of Japan meets later this week and most analysts expect the central bank will ease policy further by asset buying and lending program which will continue to put downward pressure on the yen.
The open question is whether Prime Minister Abe shall follow up on his tough talk. Strategists at Barclays bank recommend long positions in three-month dollar/yen call options on estimates suggesting that a 10 percent multilateral nominal yen depreciation would be needed to get a one-off inflation boost of just 1,5 percent. Other analyst and market participants warned that the yen might be poised for a rebound as Abe’s actions are likely to fall short of tough intentions.
In the US House of Representative Speaker, John Boehner’s offer to accept a tax rate increase for the wealthiest Americans knocks down a key Republican obstacle to deal with the revolving year-end “fiscal cliff”. Boehner shall presumably have offered extended tax hikes for everyone who has less than one million in net annual income. Taxes for all income above USD 1 million shall rise. President Obama’s reaction on this presumed offer is going to be decisive for a possible solution within the 31st December deadline.

18 DECEMBER 2012: “CLIFF” OPTIMISM BOOSTS MARKETS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Both US and Asian shares inched higher as optimism grew for a “fiscal cliff” deal as President Barack Obama yesterday met with his Republican counterpart, House of Representative Speaker, John Boehner. Obama presented a counter-offer to the Republicans that is said to include a major change in position on tax hikes for the wealthy in efforts to hammer out a compromise to avert steep tax hikes and indiscriminate spending reductions set for the beginning of 2013.
According to informed sources the White House in a dramatic change of position has proposed leaving lower tax rates for everyone except for those earning above USD 400 000. That is up from the former threshold of USD 250 000 proposed by the President, but still far from the Republican proposal of USD 1 million. Obama is also said to be willing to compromise on budget cuts and revenue figures.
The rumors on movement in the negotiations had the US stock indexes to soar led by financials and other growth-orientated sectors. Bank of America jumped by 3,97 % followed by other major blue chips as Home Depot, JP Morgan, General Electric and Sisco. Dow Jones were up 0,76 % to 13 235. Nasdaq rose 1.32 % and ended at 3010 again passing the 3000 threshold. The positive trend continued in Asia this morning where Australian shares outperformed with a 0,7 percent increase. Also Nikkei, Shanghai and the MSCI index for Asian Pacific rose.
The more optimistic market attitude had a positive impact on commodities and precious metals. Oil prices led by Brent crude are up to 108,18 and gold again passed the USD 1700 ounce level after falling back to below 1690. The pressure on Yen following the Japanese elections continues. USD/JPY is trading at 83,98 after reaching 84,48 on Monday. The dollar has probably still an upside against yen prior to the Central Bank of Japan’s meeting later this week. Prime Minister Abe’s comments yesterday strengthened the assumption that BOJ would initiate monetary easing. EURO/USD stands at 1.3170, in line with the new higher level seen established in relation between USD and Euro. The Euro countries principle decision to establish a banking union has positively impacted the strength of the Euro.

Fiscal Cliff Talks Thaw
It seems that Republican stances are softening as the clock ticks down to the New Year, and the US approaches the activation of the Fiscal Cliff. In the newest round of discussions, Republican leaders led by House Speaker John Boehner have conceded to allowing a tax rate increase of earners making a minimum of $1 million. The tax rate for income in that range would increase from 36% to 39.5% under the concession.
In addition, Republicans have offered to table the $16.4 trillion debt ceiling discussion for one year. The debt ceiling debate would likely emerge early next year without any deal, sparking concern and speculation of a government shutdown. The concessions have done little to support the greenback as the Obama administration continues to press forward with its objective of raising tax rates for the top 2% of income earners – rejecting recent Republican concessions.

Standard & Poor's upgrades Greece from selective default to B- outlook stable
Two weeks later after credit agency Standar & Poor's downgraded Greece to selective default, it has lifted again the rating to -B, two notches higher than expected back in December 05 when the initial downgrade took place, on the promise when the payback debt was finished the upgrade would come.
From today's S&P statement: “The stable outlook balances our view of euro zone member states determination to support Greece’s euro zone membership and the Greek government’s commitment to a fiscal and structural adjustment against the economic and political challenges of doing so,” the agency said. “Even after the buyback, Greece’s end-2012 net debt-to-GDP ratio of over 160 percent of GDP remains onerous,” the credit rating company stated. “Nevertheless, subject to Greece meeting program conditions, euro zone member states have said they would significantly improve official lending terms to the government.”- https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/19122012/

19 DECEMBER 2012: EURO OUTPERFORMS ON INCREASED RISK APPETITE
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The Euro reached multi-months high against dollar and Japanese yen on Wednesday extending recent gains. Signs of progress in the US fiscal talks bolstered demand for riskier assets. Euro/USD is trading at 1.324655. USD/JPY stands at 84,282. The Scandinavian currencies, Norwegian, Swedish and Danish krones have gained substantially against the dollar over last week.
The US House of Representatives Majority Leader, Eric Cantor, said yesterday that he expected a vote on a Republican offer to avert the “fiscal cliff” on Thursday. Republicans plan a vote on a bill to raise taxes on income above USD 1 million while extending low rates on other tax payers. The White House has proposed a compromise USD 400 000 threshold. Cantor said he expected to have enough votes to pass the measure.
In spite of the big distance between the two parties’ stock markets all over the world rose on expectations of a compromise. Gains in Asia this morning came after Wall Street S&P 500 index for the biggest 500 companies rose more than one percent completing the best two-day rally in a month. The US market is higher driven by the fact that the parties now at least are engaged in constructive negotiations striving to find a middle ground.
Tokyo’s Nikkei rose 1,3 percent topping 10 000 points for the first time since April as Bank of Japan (BOJ)started their two day meeting. BOJ is expected to take measures for monetary easing and a more expansionistic fiscal policy. The Yen continues to fall against most currencies. Australian shares rose to a 17-month high led by miners and banks. Australian dollar, however, barely budged in part because currency speculators were already holding record long positions.
Boosted by optimism on a US budget compromise analysts predict that EURO/USD might reach the 1.33 level year-end targets. Oil prices are steady with Brent crude trading at 108,88 on better economic outlook. Copper is flat in the morning after falling Tuesday. Both Gold and silver fell rather dramatically yesterday slowly recovering somewhat this morning. Gold fell from a 1705 peak down to a 1660 bottom. It is now trading at 1670.

EUR/USD
The Euro continues to trend higher, extending the latest upleg from 1.2876, 07 Dec low. Break and close above psychological 1.3200 barrier, confirms the fresh bull-phase, following three-month congestion under 1.3170 peak. Larger picture bulls see room for fresh extension higher and test of initial targets at 1.3282, 01 May high and 1.3300, round-figure resistance, with strong resistance zone at 1.3500, yearly high / Fib 50% of 1.4938/1.2042, expected to come in near-term focus. Consolidative / corrective action on extremely overbought hourly studies, may precede fresh bulls, with initial static supports standing at 1.3220/00, reinforced by 20 day EMA and previous high at 1.3186. Any stronger reversal should be contained by 1.3100 zone, Fib 38.2% of 1.2876/1.3253 / 55 day EMA.

GBP/USD
Near-term bulls remain fully in play for possible test of key barrier and multi-month range top at 1.6300, as yesterday’s strong rally reached 1.6286 high, just ahead of 1.6300/08, 30 Apr / 21 Sep yearly peaks. Overextended near-term studies suggest a pause in rally, however, no clear reversal signal seen yet. Overnight’s corrective low at 1.6244 offers immediate support, ahead of more significant higher platform and Fib 38.2% of 1.6084/1.6286 upleg at 1.6200 that is expected to contain any stronger pullback.

USD/JPY
The pair resumes near-term rally that was interrupted by two-day 84.32/83.60 corrective action. With fresh high posted just under our initial target at 84.50, scope is seen for possible stretch towards psychological barrier at 85.00, also weekly 200 day MA. However, overbought conditions on lower and larger timeframes, require caution, as failure to surpass 84.50, would result in stronger corrective action towards 83.80/60 support zone.

USD/CHF
Bears remain unobstructed, as the pair continues to post fresh lows, following loss of important 0.9200 level. As the price approaches psychological 0.9100 support, bearish extension through here would eye 0.9041 and 0.9000, 01 May / 03 Apr lows. Near-term indicators in the oversold territory do not rule out bounce, with previous low at 0.9151, offering initial resistance, ahead of more significant 0.9200, round figure / near Fib 38.2% of 0.9381/0.9112 descend, break of which would provide temporary relief.

All Eyes On Bank of Japan Following Abe Win
Now that the Japanese lower house elections are over, trader focus is being placed on the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy decision – taking place over the next two days. This decision will be important one for the underlying currency, which continues to lose against the US dollar. Since the beginning of the election campaign, LDP leader Shinzo Abe has run on the platform for further monetary easing in boosting economic growth. As a result, central bank leaders have been under extreme pressure from Abe supporters in expanding monetary policy – currently totaling $1.1 trillion.
And, now that Abe has won, further accommodation is anticipated. Expectations are now for the Bank of Japan to leave interest rates near zero, while expanding monetary policy by another $1 billion. Such a move may ultimately jeopardize the independence of the Bank of Japan, as policymakers would be falling into line with the political agenda. Incidentally, traders will be looking for a change in the inflation target set by the central bank – potentially raising it to 2% from the current 1%. This is another Abe policy that was promised as the government attempts to alleviate the current deflationary environment. -FXstreet.com

The single currency is taking a pause in recent strong rally, as psychological 1.3300 level proves to be tough barrier. Subsequent quick pullback and slide below 1.3200 handle, sidelines near-term bulls, as hourly indicators moved in the negative territory and notion being supported by Gravestone Doji that signals loss of upward momentum and stronger reversal. With initial strong support at 1.3200/1.3186 being dented, where 20 day EMA contained dips for now. However, further reversal cannot be ruled out, with next support at 1.3140 zone, Fib 38.2% of 1.2876/1.3307 and 17 Dec low, required to hold and prevent the pair form deeper slide. On the upside, lift above 1.3250 would signal higher low and shift focus towards 1.3300 barrier. Strong bullish stance on a daily chart, still keeps the upside favored, with 1.3360, weekly 90 day MA and 1.3380, April highs, seen as near-term targets.

Near-term bulls are losing traction, after Cable briefly tested very strong 1.6300 barrier but failure to sustain gains, resulted reversal to initial support zone at 1.6240, where 55 day EMA so far contained losses.

Losing the latter will also fill last Monday’s gap and risk stronger correction of the recent rally. Reversing 4h and overbought daily studies are supporting such scenario, with close below 84.00, required to confirm. Conversely, regain of previous top at 84.32, would avert immediate downside risk.

Subsequent bounce so far tested initial barrier and previous low at 0.9150, where 20 day EMA limited recovery for now. Improved conditions on hourly chart, see potential for possible further extension higher and test of psychological 0.9200 barrier, break of which is required to confirm recovery.

20 DECEMBER 2012: STALLED NEGOTIATIONS TURN MARKETS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
After reaching a 18-month high Asian stocks eased and commodities fell in morning trade on stalled budget negotiations in Washington. President Barack Obama accused his opponents of holding a personal grudge against him and threatened to use his veto power. The top Republican negotiator branded the President “irrational”. The mutual accusations came after substantial progress to avert the so called “fiscal cliff” had been obtained during the last days. The personal taunts put a timely solution at risk and threaten the world largest economy with recession.
The harsh rhetoric had an immediate effect on markets. After a flat opening Dow Jones plunged 0,78 while Nasdaq lost 0,33 %. Financials and retailers, the big winners earlier in the week, were hardest hit. General Electric, Alcoa, Home Depot and the Bank of America were among the big losers. The Asian indexes with exception for the South Korean Kospi which rose 0,3 % on news of the election of its first female president, lost ground. Australia is still up. It is expected that European and US markets today will open lower on profit taking and risk aversion. Decreased risk appetite shall probably hit also smaller currencies.
Bank of Japan (BOJ) has according to expectations expanded its asset-buying program by 10 trillion yen to fight deflation. USD/JPY which saw 84,50, has fallen to below 84 as result of the stalled budget negotiations. Euro/USD peaked to 1.33085 on Wednesday has fallen back trading at 1.3210. Smaller currencies are due to the changed risk sentiment atmosphere losing ground.
Oil prices which rose on growth optimism, has retreated somewhat in early Asian trading. Brent crude stands at 110.08 with NYMEX just below USD 89 a barrel. Copper is down. Gold and silver are at the lowest levels seen for months.
US prosecutors have charged two former UBS (Union Bank of Switzerland) traders for participating in a scheme to manipulate Libor and other benchmark interest rates. This is the first individuals criminally accused in the Libor scandal. UBS has agreed to pay a fine of USD 1,5 billion to regulators in the US, UK and Switzerland. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority has simultaneously stated that UBS is under investigation for similar fraud in Hong Kong.

21 DECEMBER 2012: SERIOUS SET-BACK FOR “CLIFF” NEGOTIATIONS
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
In a statement to the House late yesterday, Republican Speaker, John Boehner, announced that there was not enough support to have “Plan B” to avoid the fiscal cliff voted through. Two options seem to remain: The Republicans can wash their hands on the entire matter or try negotiate a compromise with Democrats that could secure support from a sufficient number of Republicans. Plan B involved increased taxes on incomes above USD 1 million. President Obama’s proposals set the threshold at USD 400 000.
Dow Jones and Nasdaq gained on new expectations for a budget solution within year-end before the news announcement. A solution seems for the moment unrealistic. A possible compromise would mean that a substantial member of Republicans give up their bedrock resistance to all tax hikes. The non-vote in the House represents a serious set-back for the prospects to avert the “fiscal cliff”, automatic spending cuts and tax increases set to start in January. The news had an immediate effect on Asia. Asian shares slid. The MSCI index for the Asian Pacific dropped 0,7 %. Nasdaq and Dow Jones futures are down 1,7 %.
Risk assets from shares, oil to currencies as the Australian dollar and EURO, were sold off in the morning hours. Euro/USD is falling below 1.32 losing 60 basis points. The USD/JPY is slightly firmer at 83,93 down from 84,50 yen a dollar yesterday. The market uncertainty has generally strengthened the dollar. The DXY index where the USD is weighed against a basket of major currencies, gains 0,2%. The steep fall in precious metals continue. Gold is USD 1640 an ounce and silver has dropped two dollars during the last day trading to 29,72.
The Republican-led House of Representative which abruptly recessed late Thursday may return with a not yet decided new plan on December 27th. Markets see the event yesterday as major set-back for a fiscal compromise. The chance for a deal is downscaled from 60 to 30 %. Markets are extremely volatile and will continue to be swayed by the budget negotiations over the next days.

Boehner’s ‘Plan B’ dead on arrival
News has just hit the newswires that there will be no vote on ‘Plan B’ this evening due to lack of Republican support. Speaker John Boehner has pulled his own bill, and his office has just released a statement that says, in part: “The House did not take up the tax measure today because it did not have sufficient support from our members to pass. Now it is up to the President to work with Senator Reid [(D)] on legislation to avert the fiscal cliff.” This is significant because the Speaker could not persuade his own Republican members to back his plan against President Obama’s offers and proposals on the matter. The US dollar is well bid across the board on this news, as market participants flee to safety.
The UK government’s monthly budget update for November is on offer in the European session ahead, expected to show a deficit of £14.1B on-month, which would widen the annual deficit to £76.0B. “If realized, this is a bit larger than the annual deficit for the year ending June of -£74.2B and highlight the ongoing challenge confronting the UK government in reducing its deficit,” says Rabobank International.

Boehner’s ‘Plan B’ bill vote canceled
News has hit the newswires that there will be no vote on ‘Plan B’ this evening due to lack of Republican support. Speaker John Boehner has pulled his own bill, and his office has just released a statement that says, in part: “The House did not take up the tax measure today because it did not have sufficient support from our members to pass. Now it is up to the President to work with Senator Reid [(D)] on legislation to avert the fiscal cliff.” This is significant because the Speaker could not persuade his own Republican members to back his plan against President Obama’s offers and proposals on the matter. The US dollar is well bid across the board on this news, as market participants flee to safety.
The Republican-lead House of Representatives on Capitol Hill is moving ahead with a bill aimed at pressuring President Obama for a “fiscal cliff” deal. A second vote on taxes is expected later this evening; the House is in recess for now, but the Ways and Means staff is said to be on the floor ready for the tax debate to begin. In the end, even if House Speaker John Boehner’s “Plan B” were to pass, political analysts say that it stands no chance of being accepted by the Democratic-lead Senate or by the President. Time is quickly running out for US lawmakers to reach a deal to prevent a self-inflicted economic recession. At the time of writing, the U.S. dollar is finding buying interest across the board, likely underpinned by this sour mood surrounding the “fiscal cliff” developments, and on news that S&P has just downgraded Cyprus’ foreign long-term issuer credit rating to CCC+ from B. –

Year In Preview: What Will 2013 Bring for the Euro?
Another year has gone by and a lot has happened in the last twelve months, even as the European financial crisis continues to persist. But, taking a look at the next twelve months, and it’s easy to see that things are going to be that much calmer for the single currency in 2013. Here are some things to consider when January 1st rolls around. Shift in ECB Policy With European Union growth remaining lower for most of 2012, the European Central Bank has refrained from cutting rates amid persistently higher inflation. Although not rampant, the pace of consumer prices has risen by 2.2-2.5% annually in 2012 – a cause for at least some concern and a stay on rates. However, with inflation set to decline once again on slower growth, ECB policymakers may be at a favorable point in time to execute a rate cut of 25 basis points. The notion is being supported by growth forecasts by the central bank that pit EU contraction at about 0.3% for all of next year.
The rate cut would be bearish for the Euro in the short term, but at least support the chance for growth in the wider EU region as periphery economies are expected to contribute handsomely to the decline in overall expansion.

24 DECEMBER 2012: THE OPEC DOESN'T WANT THE PRICE OF OIL TO BE LOWER THAN $100
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Last trading session in America was closed with drop, the index S&P500 lost 0,94%. Price stopped at the level of 1430,15 points. Dow Jones lost 0.91%. With approach of 2013 tension at the stock markets increases: the problem of "fiscal cliff" isn't solved, moreover, investors are getting new reasons for concerns. So, the speaker of the House of Representatives of the Congress of the USA John Beyner cancelled vote according to the project of republicans in connection with insufficient support of the ideas, thus, the resumption of negotiations between republicans and democrats is expected only after Christmas, and for achievement of the agreement they will have only 4 working days.
The most part of "blue chips" included in index finished session in "a red zone". The most notable decrease showed Bank of America (-2,00%), Exxon Mobil (-1,87%) and Walt-Disney (-1,86%), in plus there was only American Express (+0,44%) and McDonald’s (+0,16%).
Recently we heard news which can become the reason of correction of the world markets at the beginning of the next year. The prime minister of Italy Mario Monty retired on Friday, but thus declared on Sunday that he will consider opportunity to stand for the second term at parliamentary elections on February. Chances to get the second term are insignificant.
As a whole rather quiet situation remains in the oil market. Quotations are consolidating within the trade range of the last months. All attempts to leave out from these limits are unsuccessful. Among the latest news of the sector, it is necessary to note the message of several news agencies referring to the minister of oil of Iran - Rostam Ghasemi. According to him, the OPEC will hold an emergency meeting if price of oil falls lower than 100 US dollars. Besides he also noted that the price of oil is predicted to be higher than 100 dollars for barrel in 2013. This morning we can see Brent on a level of 108.78.
Gold and silver are stable this morning and a slowly recovering from the minimum levels we have seen last week. Gold is traded on a level of 1663.22 and silver is on a level of 30.236. As a whole, for this year prices of gold grew by 5.9% and this is the 12th year of growth of metal. One of the reasons of the high prices is demand of the world Central Banks which buy up metal for hedging of the risks. Nevertheless, judging the last data of the Commission of the market of futures of the USA, rates on further rally of gold fell to 13% to 112.42 thousand contracts.

26 DECEMBER 2012: MARKETS ARE WAITING FOR PROGRESS IN NEGOTIATIONS ON BUDGETARY QUESTIONS IN THE USA
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Without special enthusiasm passed the pre-Christmas truncated trading session on Wall Street. Key indexes lost about 0,2-0,4% on small trading volumes. As a part of an index of blue chips - Dow Jones, the greatest contribution to decrease in the indicator made the representatives of hi-tech sector: Hewlett-Packard (-2,3%), Microsoft (-1,42%), Cisco Systems (-0,65%).
Besides, in the days which have remained to New year, statistical departments will submit data on the housing market, in particular housing prices, sales of new buildings and incomplete sales of houses. The research organization Conference Board will publish data on dynamics of an index of consumer confidence in the USA for December. While stock markets stiffened waiting for news from America regarding "fiscal cliff".
Asian share indexes bargain today in more expanded structure, than yesterday, however the stock exchanges of Australia and Hong Kong are still closed in connection with celebration of Catholic Christmas. At the same time the Japanese Nikkei index continues the ascending movement caused by the next round of weakening of national currency, but the index of continental China SSE corrects today a yesterday's steady growth.
The Japanese yen continues today to decrease, USD/JPY pair bargains at the level of 85,3, again updating thereby an one-and-a-half-year maximum, and approaching a maximum of 2 years, established at the level of 85,5.
Yesterday futures of gold rose in price in Tokyo for the first time for the last four days this is connected with statements of the new prime minister of Japan Shinzo Abe who is the supporter of "soft" approach to economy. He insists that if the Central Bank of the country will not raise a level of inflation for stimulation of economic growth, he will change his powers. All this promotes that gold acts again for investors as "smooth water". Today this morning, we can see gold traded on a level of 1655.98. Silver is slightly strengthening and traded at level of 29.95, getting closer to a level of 30 dollars per troy ounce.

27 DECEMBER 2012: MARKETS WAIT FOR NEWS FROM WASHINGTON
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The European stock exchanges were closed yesterday, but American indexes showed not so positive dynamics and were closed with a decrease. Dow Jones lost 0.18%, but Nasdaq and S&P500 were closed with a fall of 0.74% and 0.47% accordingly. Fears of the American investors are again connected with a dependence of the main problem of year - "fiscal cliff", and also with a ceiling of the public debt which limit, according to the Minister of Finance - Timothy Geithner, will be reached already on December 31 of the current year.
Also oil to fire was added by data on retails which were record-breaking low, their volume from October 28 till December 24 grew only by 0,7% in comparison with the similar period last year. Master Card also specifies that many people show today restraint in the purchases, being afraid of "fiscal cliff" which can come on January 1 and bring with itself increase of taxes.
Futures for WTI brand oil yesterday jumped up for $2,37 to $90,98 for barrel. Today WTI oil is traded on a level of $91,18 for barrel, Brent is decreasing less than 0,2%, bargaining at the level of $111,05 for barrel.
Gold loses the positions in one of the last days of 2012, trading passes very inertly as many participants of the market already left for holidays. Gold is losing 0.25% and traded on a level of $1656.50, silver is bargaining around level of $30.00 second day in a row.
Absolutely other situation is observed in copper futures which add more than 1.3%. Quotations break through a level of $7900 after the National bureau of statistics of the People's Republic of China reported that the profit of the industrial companies in the country grew in November by 22.8% in comparison with the similar period last year. China is the largest consumer of copper therefore investors hope that recovery of the Chinese economy will positively influence demand for metal.

Fiscal cliff looms as US lawmakers play game of brinkmanship
The "fiscal cliff" steadfastly approaches and it is a fair assumption that no one will come up with a deal in time to stop the country from careening off the edge. Nearly everyone involved claims they want to avoid the automatic tax increases and colossal budget cuts that will start kicking in at the start of 2013, however few are ready to make the compromises necessary to make that happen.
As expected, anti-tax purists in the House Republican Caucus have gotten in the way of Speaker John A. Boehners attempts to come up with a fix for the fiscal cliff. Last week, he withdrew his doomed Plan B rather than let it go to a vote he knew he would lose. Democrats were united in their opposition, though what ultimately killed the scheme was the refusal of conservatives in Boehner’s own caucus to go along with a tax increase for millionaires. Boehner now seems to have washed his hands of responsibility and says it is up to the president and Democrats in the Senate to save the country from the New Year’s program cuts and tax increases that will come so fast and furiously that the economy could suffer. President Obama cut short his Hawaii vacation to return to the snow-covered capital hoping to concoct a last-minute deal in the eleventh hour. -FXstreet.com

28 DECEMBER 2012: LAST TALKS ON “FISCAL CLIFF” STRENGTHEN EURO
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
President Barack Obama and lawmakers are launching a last chance round of budget talks just days before a New Year’s deadline to reach a deal to avoid a “fiscal cliff”: an increase of USD 600 billion of taxes and budget cuts to be automatically executed from January 1st if politicians fail to find a budget compromise. Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will meet with congressional leaders from both parties in the afternoon today. The news has for now strengthened risk appetite and Euro/USD is up.
The two political parties remained far apart particularly over plans to increase taxes on the wealthiest Americans to help close the US budget deficit. The coming days are likely to see intense bargaining over numbers or political theatre as each side attempt to avoid blame if a deal looks unlikely.
US stocks sharply cut losses and rose on news of the House reconvening as investors clung to hopes of an 11th –hour deal. Even a partial agreement on taxes that would leave tougher issues like entitlement reform and the debt ceiling until later could be enough to keep markets calm. US stocks recovered, but fell for a fourth day after a jittery session which saw a one % fall after Senate Majority leader, Henry Reid, initially warned that a deal was unlikely. Stock markets recovered and ended flat on news on new negotiations. Dow Jones ended down 0,14 % to 13 096 after a one percentage free fall in the opening of yesterday’s session.
Asian shares inched higher on signs that Washington is making a last ditch effort to reach a budget compromise. The USD/JPY fell to its lowest level in 2 years trading at 86,64, and Japanese stocks to 21 months high on expectations of drastic monetary easing. Australian shares rose to a 19 month high and are on track to post its strongest annual gain since 2009. Oil prices rose on hopes of a US political deal. Brent crude reached USD 111 a barrel.
EURO/USD has recovered to 1.3240 after falling to 1.3170 before Christmas on news of failed budget negotiations. A budget settlement will create renewed optimism for continued US economic growth and increased risk appetite which will strengthen the Euro and smaller currencies. Australian dollar hit a 20-month peak against the yen at 89,93 and is also up against the USD.

31 DECEMBER 2012: LAST DITCH EFFORTS TO AVOID “FISCAL CLIFF”
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Democratic and Republican leaders pushed the United States to the edge of the “fiscal cliff” on Sunday as they struggled to reach a last-minute deal that could protect the world largest economy from a politically induced recession. Senate lawmakers are still hoping to clear the way for swift action thereby avoiding sweeping tax increases and spending cuts due to tick in on Tuesday, January 1st. The two sides are, however, still at loggerheads in talks. Senate was adjourned yesterday and meet again today for a last ditch effort to reach a compromise.
Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid last night postponed any possible votes; “There are still significant differences between the two sides”, Reid stated. President Obama had originally proposed a USD 250 000 income threshold for increased taxes. The Republicans are in principle against all tax increases, but has voiced a compromise threshold on USD 1 million. The parties are also wide apart on possible budget spending cuts.
As hours ticked away it appeared increasingly unlikely to avoid a USD 600 billion hammer blow to the fragile US economy recovery. Americans could see a bigger bite taken out of their pay checks starting on 1st January as payroll and income tax cuts expire. Two million unemployed Americans could see their jobless benefits run out. The uncertainties have weighed in on global, financial market. Investors are likely to sell off stocks at the beginning of the new year expressing their displeasure with a no deal.
In a rare appearance on Sunday’s NBCs “Meet the Press”, president Barack Obama warned against the immediate negative effects on markets and blamed the Republicans for rejecting significant presented compromises. His accusations were flatly refused by Republican spokesmen.
Due also to Christmas and the New year holidays investors have been sitting on the side lines waiting for Washington to act. US markets were down for a fifth straight session on Friday, and there were small changes in the currency and commodity markets. Euro/USD is trading around 1.3215 up from last week’s low on 1.3175. USD/JPY is stabile on 86 yen to a dollar. Oil prices are high with Brent crude above USD 110 a barrel. No major changes in commodity and precious metal prices. Gold is at USD 1660 an ounce.

Time running short for ‘fiscal cliff’ deal
Well, it looks like negotiations on Capitol Hill are still ongoing and far apart to avoid January’s “fiscal cliff”, as the House and Senate are to reconvene later today, the final day for Congress to craft a resolution prior to the deadline. In a Sunday talk show, President Obama stated clearly that it appears the GOP’s top priority is to protect the tax rates for the wealthy, while his top priority is to ensure that taxes on the middle-class do not go up. Although the President says he remains optimistic, he also acknowledges that financial markets would be unfavorably impacted if the US economy stumbles off of the cliff.
As Kathy Lien, Managing Director at BK Asset Management explains in a research note: “If it becomes evident that a deal will be deferred to January, expect currencies and equities to sell-off in disappointment. With some major currencies pulling back and equities declining, we have already seen investors take profit and hedge their positions ahead of the Fiscal Cliff deadline. If Obama announces a stripped down plan and expresses confidence that a deal will be sealed by end of day Monday, we can expect currencies and equities to rally in relief.”

MARKET ANALYSIS – Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: We expect resuming of the uptrend formation if the price manages to overcome next resistance level at 1.3215 (R1). Immediate focus comes on 1.3233 (R2) and 1.3250 (R3) in such scenario. Downwards scenario: Price setup is looking for a pullback development. Downside fluctuations remains for now limited to next support level at 1.3187 (S1), only clear break here would be a signal of market easing with next targets at 1.3165 (S2) and 1.3143 (S3).

US House passes fiscal cliff bill
After weeks of talks and negotiations, the House of Representatives has finally passed the fiscal cliff bill, with the ‘yea’ votes obtained surpassing the 217 threshold needed to approve the fiscal deal. The final vote count stood at 257-167 in favour of the bill. President Obama is ready to sign it into law.
The compromise, which first was agreed by Senate in early Tuesday morning, has come not without some last minute agitated negotiation disputes, in which Republicans wanted to challenge the approved senate-bill by sending it back for revision demanding additional spending cuts, with reports initially suggesting that the House Republicans would be adjourning any decision until Wednesday. Pending the signature of President Obama, expected to be done shortly, the US officially avoids that millions of citizens suffer tax hikes and spending reductions, which would have brought the U.S. economy into recession according to economists’ projections. Worth not forgetting though, is that still plentiful of unresolved pressing issues remain, with the most immediate being the need to raise the federal borrowing limit, with the deadline over 2 month from now.

02 JANUARY 2013: FISCAL DEAL GIVES RELIEF RALLY IN STOCKS AND COMMODITIES
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
A compromise in the 24th hour avoided the fiscal cliff at least for now. After tough negotiations running into the new year, Democrats and Republicans succeeded in reaching partial agreement on a threshold which imposes tax increases on incomes above USD 400 000. The “grand deal” of bigger taxes on the rich combined with spending cuts which President Barack Obama aimed for, has been suspended till March. The Senate and the House of Representatives voted during night hours in favor of the compromise deal, which has been difficult to swallow for all parties.
The drama around the fiscal cliff which has dominated US and global markets for the last months, has thereby found a temporarily solution. Markets reacted with relief and sent stock markets in Asia to new highs after a bumpy session in the US on New Year’s Eve. Investors shifted between optimism and pessimism till the majority gambled on a deal. Both Dow Jones and Nasdaq posted healthy gains. With president Obama’s signing of the deal this morning that gamble has paid off.
The compromise has given global markets a good start on the year in spite of general consensus that major economic and financial challenges have to be dealt with especially the big US deficits and the problems inside the Eurozone. Angela Merkel in her New Year speech reminded that problems inside the Euro-zone by no means had reached an end. The deal in Congress means, however, that there are good chances that the recovery of the US and global economy will continue. Better prospects for still high growth in China will boost global markets. This more positive sentiment is reflected in today’s trades where oil and commodity prices are up in expectations of increased growth. New York crude, NYMEX, is above USD 93 a barrel and Brent crude is above 111. Copper, gold and silver prices are also up.
The positive attitude is also reflected in the currency markets where there are increased appetite for more risky currencies as Euro and British pounds. EURO/USD trades at 1.3280 up 100 basis points. USD/GBP is above 1.63. Japanese yen, a “safe haven” currency continues to lose ground against both Euro and the USD. USD/JPY is above 87 yen a dollar. Typical commodity currencies as Australian and Canadian dollar are up together with the Scandinavian; Swedish, Norwegian and Danish krones.

Congress Passes Fiscal Cliff Deal – The Breakdown
In a final hour maneuver, Congressional leaders brokered a deal that will allow the US economy to avert the Fiscal Cliff and alleviate pressure on the financial markets. The passage is being considered by some to be a victory for US President Barack Obama. But, by others, it shifts the focus to mid February when discussions are likely to begin over the impending debt ceiling.
With the bill set to be signed into law by US President Barack Obama, focus has now shifted to the impending debt ceiling debate – likely to begin in mid-February. The concern remains over the fact that Democratic leaders will need to make further concessions on spending to Republicans in order to allow an extension of the $16.4 trillion ceiling. An inability to do so would plunge the government into a plausible shutdown. This will likely include cutbacks in entitlement spending and other programs in order to equalize Republican concessions for the Fiscal Cliff deal.

03 JANUARY 2013: EURO FALLS BACK ON PROFIT TAKING
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The relief rally in securities after the US avoided the fiscal cliff, continued in Europe, the United States and Asia this morning. The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 2,35 % to 13 412. Nasdaq reached 3 112 up more than 3 %. The technology and banking sectors posted the biggest gains with Bank of America up 3,7 % and Apple as the winners. The gains came on heavy volumes with funds leaving the bond market entering into equities. 7,8 billion shares were traded against an average of 6.42 billion.
The dollar slid against high-yielding currencies with investors selling “safe haven” currencies as dollar and yen on strong risk appetite. The losses in dollar and yen might, however, be temporary. Difficult negotiation on US spending restraints and the debt ceiling are waiting in the wings. The EURO which was favourite among investors in morning hours yesterday, lost all its gain during trading yesterday and plunged 150 points to Euro/USD 1.3136 on aggressive profit taking. Commodities which saw big increases on the budget compromise in expectations on stabile growth, have as well technically corrected with the exception of oil. Brent crude still trades above USD 112,40 a barrel.
The compromise agreement on the “cliff” is seen as a victory for President Barack Obama in succeeding to increase taxes on the rich , but set up potentially bruising showdowns between Republicans and Democrats over the next two months on spending cuts and a limit on borrowing. Republicans who on the top are fighting disarray in own ranks with member principally against any tax hikes, were furious that the obtained deal did little to curb the financial deficit. There is a tense atmosphere between the two parties. The Republican House Speaker, John Boehner, is said to have told his Democrat counterparty, Harry Reid, to “go **** yourself” before a final deal was reached.
Asian stocks continued to post gains in morning hours Thursday on hopes for a steady economic revival in China. After Wednesday’s two % jump, the MSCI index for the Asian Pacific was up 0,3 %. Service sector data from China in December point to a healthy recovery. Both the China Enterprise index and Hon Kong’s Hang Sheng are up. A momentum that can last at least for some months seem to be building up.
The Japanese yen bounced back after hitting a 29-month low versus USD. Even if USD/JPY looks somewhat overbought any strength in the yen is likely to be short-lived. USD/JPY trades at 87,24. GBP has also fallen back against the dollar, but the trend seems to be in favour of a stronger British pound. The Scandinavian currencies, NOK, SEK and DKK which also boomed on the Congress deal, has technically corrected and fallen back 0,5 to 1 %.

Two largest rating agencies consider US fiscal cliff deal insufficient
Moody's and Standard and Poor's credit rating agencies urged US lawmakers on Thursday to increase their efforts to tackle the country's budget deficit, as they consider the last-minute fiscal cliff measures insufficient. The deal which was struck on Tuesday between Democrats and Republicans, with the aim to avoid automatic year-end tax increases and spending cuts, improves the current situation but does not lay foundations for lowering debt ratios in the medium term, Moody's rating agency told Reuters. Moody's senior credit officer Steven Hess said that the agency would wait for the outcome of the measures adopted by the US government before making decisions on the rating outlook or the rating itself.
Pending the signature of President Obama, expected to be done shortly, the US officially avoids that millions of citizens suffer tax hikes and spending reductions, which would have brought the U.S. economy into recession according to economists' projections. Worth not forgetting though, is that still plentiful of unresolved pressing issues remain, with the most immediate being the need to raise the federal borrowing limit, with the deadline over 2 month from now.-FXstreet.com

04 JANUARY 2013: FED MINUTES BOOST USD. STOCKS AND GOLD PLUNGE
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
The Wall Street New Year’s rally came to an abrupt end yesterday when minutes from the Federal Reserve, FED’s, December policy meeting put severe questions marks to whether monetary policy stimuli will continue. The minutes were released Thursday and the optimistic markets reacted immediately by sending US and Asian markets down. The USD skyrocketed while commodities and precious metals were in free fall. Euro/USD trades at 1.3034, a 250 basis points fall from the first trading day in January. Gold plunged USD 45 from its new year’s peak, and oil prices lose ground.
The released minutes showed that some voting members of FED were increasingly concerned about the potential risks of FED’s asset purchases. The asset-buying policy has been pivotal in underpinning investor risk appetite and supporting global equities. The more hawkish FED minutes unnerved financial markets. Stocks gave up earlier gains and benchmark US Treasury yields rose to a near eight month high having a strong negative impact oil, commodities and equities lifting the dollar.
US private sector hiring was pointing upwards before the monthly payrolls report is due later today. The monthly payroll report is one crucial indicator for FED deciding on future policy course. The rise in the dollar hit precious metals and oil especially hard. A firmer dollar makes dollar-based assets more expensive for non-dollar holders. The strong moves in the markets reflect positioning after the recent rallies and before the nonfarm payrolls report which can tip markets either way.
While Nasdag and Dow Jones fell moderately, the MSCI index for Asia-Pacific fell 0,8 % after reaching a 19-months high on Thursday. The dollar hit its highest level against Yen since July 2010 at 87,78. The Euro fell to a three week low of 1.3018 against the dollar on Friday. The US dollar index, DXY, touched a four-week high against a basket of major currencies. The fall in the yen will probably continue with 90 yen against USD as likely in the short term. Yen’s fall continues to strengthen Nikkei which is at its highest level since March 2011.

ECB, BOE in Prime Focus this Week
With the Fiscal Cliff behind us and the impending debt ceiling debate at least another month away, market focus will return to plain economic fundamentals next week. The sentiment is being bolstered by two central bank announcements – the ECB (January 10th, 7:45AM EST) and BOE (January 10th, 7:00AM EST). Although nothing really new is expected, both events are still likely to take the lion’s share of attention.
Nothing is expected to happen when the Bank of England meets for the first time in 2013. Although concerns have emerged over a divide in the central bank, it is unlikely that the monetary body will move to do anything other than wait-and-see. The key remains in the results from the Funding for Lending program, which is entering its sixth month of operation. In the same respect, the ECB is unlikely to move when it decides on interest rates on Thursday. Instead, monetary policy leaders will continue to highlight the option of the OMT scheme in quelling any more crisis concerns, and likely point to stabilization in the region’s member economies in justifying no rate change.

07 JANUARY 2013: ASIAN STOCKS DRIFT ON PROFIT TAKING
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
Asian stocks drifted on Monday as investors booked profits from a New Year rally pushed market to highs not seen in months. Financial stocks gained after global regulators relaxed draft plans for tougher banking liquidity rules. The Asian Pacific MSCI-index retreated 0,9 % on Friday and was flat today after reaching its highest level since August 2011. The Japanese Nikkei retreated after last week touching a 23-month high.
US jobless claims reported in line with expectations on Friday adding 155 000 new jobs. The unemployment rate is at 7,8 % indicating a slow, but steady recovery in the US economy which has propelled Wall Street stocks to a five year high. Minutes from the December meeting of the Federal Reserve, FED, released Thursday led to tumults in global, financial markets having riskier currencies and commodities to plunge. The USD index towards a basket of currencies rose to its highest level in week as the minutes were interpreted as FED is considering to end its bond-buying program as early as this year.
The jobless data which strengthen the prospects of economic growth, had a stabilizing effect on commodity and precious metal prices. Gold rebounded from its USD 1625 an ounce level and trades at 1652 in the morning. Also silver has turned from USD 29,50 to 30,30. The dollar is close to a two-and-a-half-year high against the yen as investors adjusted to the possibility of more monetary stimulus from the Bank of Japan (BOJ) and less from FED. The dollar posted a gain on 2,7 % against yen after reaching a 88,40 peak on Friday. USD/JPY is currently trading at 87,941.
EURO/USD fell to 1.30 on Friday on the interpretation that monetary easing is about to end. It has recovered over the weekend trading at 1.3032. The US benchmark S&P index, SPX, closed at its highest level since December 2007 on Friday after the publishing of job data which also showed a healthy expansion of jobs in the services sector.
For the first time since 2001 the United States dominates the list of places that global real estate investors would prefer to put their money in 2013. A published survey reflects a sharply more optimistic view on the US economy and property market for 2013. New York and London top the list with San Francisco number 3 and Houston, Texas climbing to number 5 with Washington in fourth place. Among countries US is ranked number one followed by Brazil, UK and Turkey. Among emerging countries Brazil is the top spot followed by China, Turkey, India and Mexico.

08 JANUARY 2013: US AND ASIAN STOCKS FELL ON PROFIT CAUTION
DAILY MARKET REVIEWS
by Arne Treholt Vice-President of Business Development and Investments
US and Asian shares took a break from the new year’s rallies yesterday and this morning on negative anticipations ahead of the corporate earnings season for last quarter of 2012. The aluminum giant, Alcoa, is as usual the first to present its quarterly results later today. The MSCI-index for Asia-Pacific drifted lower and eased 0,3 % after the New Year rally lifted stocks 2 %. Dow Jones were down 0,38 % with Walt Disney and Boeing the big losers. McDonald was on the top of the winning list gaining 1,18 %.
In South Korea Samsung Electronics, the world’s number one producer of memory chips and handsets posted a record operating profit on more than 8 billion dollar. Samsung’s guidance is in line with forecasts for quarterly presentation on January 25th. The South Korean KOSPI lost 0,4 % in spite of Samsung’s announcement. Generally there are a cautious attitude towards the fourth quarter presentations. Results are expected to be generally bad. This is going to weigh in on stock markets the coming two – three weeks.
The Euro remained firm against the dollar trading in the interval between 1.30 and 1.3035 on speculation that the European Central Bank (ECB) might refrain from signalling more interest cuts when it meets on Thursday. USD/JPY which jumped to 88,40 at the end of last week, gaining more than 10 percent in two months, has corrected over the last two days trading at 87,50 yen to a dollar. The weakening of the yen is a result of speculation that the new Japanese government will push for aggressive monetary easing to fight deflation.
Position adjustments are awaited in currencies ahead of the ECB meeting and earnings reports. Euro/USD might gain ground and push back to the 1,3050 level ahead of Thursday ECB meeting. After the strong rally in USD/JPY a downward correction is waited. There is, however, strong technical resistance at 86,50 yen.
Copper prices rose to USD 8 096 a tonne on rumours that China’s annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has picked up in the last quarter. It is likely to increase to 7,8 %, higher than the general forecast on 7,5 %. China is the world’s biggest consumer of copper and other commodities. Oil prices remain steady with New York crude, NYMEX trading at USD 93 a barrel. Brent is at 111,50. Gold and silver prices stick above USD 1645 and 30 an ounce.
