FOMC Minutes- Main Risk Event Of The Day

Beside BOE minutes and interest rates decision there is nothing else on the news wire that can be a market mover except the FOMC minutes. The only thing that matters for investors is to look for more clues as to when the FED will start hiking interest rates.

You don't get to often to have the ECB monetary policy announcement and the NFP report scheduled on the same day, but due to the fact that Friday is 4th of July, thus a holiday, the NFP figures are going to be released today.
Market expectation for both of this 2 risk events are very grounded as investors are not expecting for big surprises coming out today. Typically volatility drops off heading into 4th of July.
ECB has already announced in the previous meeting some monetary easing measur…

Here Comes the Job Report

After yesterday ECB decision today we have another big risk event which may cause some serious volatility: NFP figures.
I was not expecting to see that kind of behavior on EUR/USD after ECB's new market policy, however I'm not expecting EUR/USD to develop in to a new bearish trend not until 2015 and you can find more reasons why in my previous article: The Case for a Multi-year USD Bullish Trend
Now coming back to the NFP report there is no way we can beat previous figures of 288k. First …

Preparing the Week Ahead


With the uprising tension in Ukraine and because we are in facto in a war the market action may be disrupted by the events developing right now in Ukraine.
