Commodity Report Thursday, 29 October 2015.

Morning Users!
As expected there was no rate move from the Fed last night, however there were hints that a hike could still happen before year end. This buoyed the USD but weighed on gold and put Asian equities under pressure overnight with western markets easing back this morning. As a result and with no other news to influence them, LME prices also fell although turnover remained low.Zinc traded back towards 1700 which is where the market was pre the Glencore cut back announcement and copper fo…

Super Mario draghi

Over the last months, Mario Draghi has dropped a couple of hints
suggesting that ECB Quantitative easing may be expanded beyond
September 2016, which was the initial end date for the easing program.
As a result, we became increasingly dubious about the true efficiency of
this monetary policy. Recent Eurozone data does not seem yet very
encouraging (industrial production and inflation in particular). Moreover, it
is difficult to support a policy that has failed to deliver the desired result in
Ja…

Weekly Short Snapshot.

Morning Users;
as expected last week the RBA kept Australian interest rates on hold at 2.0% whilst avoiding any suggestion that it would be taking a more dovish tone in coming months. The lack of a clear indication of possible further cuts gave the AUD some respite in the aftermath of the decision but sluggish retail sales figures, the largest ever trade deficit and stronger offshore data saw that the upside for the Aussie was short-lived.With the business week in Australia not getting underway …

EURo Through 1.12.

Good Morning Users;
the euro continued to power higher against the U.S. dollar today, closing firmly above 1.1215, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the 2000 to 2008 rally. EUR/USD bulls have the ECB to thank for today's move. Even though Central Bank President Mario Draghi expressed his disappointment with growth, laughed at the idea that they are nearing their inflation target and said if anything, they will actually add to policy, the euro jumped after he said the central bank would look thr…

Daily currency outlook (4.22.15).

Good Morning;
we see a new daily currency outlook (4.22.15).
By now you should know the market's appetite for U.S. dollars is not the primary driver of currency flows this week. There's very little U.S. data on the calendar and only a handful of Federal Reserve officials are scheduled to speak. Of the few U.S. economic reports set for release, none are game changers for monetary policy. For this reason investors have shifted their focus abroad and in doing so are realizing that outside of the U.…
